According to what CNN reported, McGurk, who travels frequently to the Middle East, is expected to remain in Saudi Arabia until Tuesday, where he and his regional counterparts plan to discuss a possible ceasefire agreement in Lebanon, in part, and how that could help moving forward. In the ceasefire agreement between Israel and the Palestinian faction movement in Gaza, as well as the release of hostages held in the Strip, and other issues related to regional stability.
It is worth noting that White House spokesman John Kirby explained to CNN yesterday, Monday, that the current status of the ceasefire negotiations in Lebanon depends on “a lot of discussions and work” during recent months.
Kirby continued: “We are close to an agreement, but I want to be careful and careful here in how I describe it, because you will not have an agreement that everything will be done.”
A senior American official also indicated to Axios yesterday that Israel and Lebanon had agreed on the terms of a ceasefire agreement to end the war between Israel and the “Lebanese faction movement,” while the two parties have not yet announced the agreement.
The Deputy Speaker of the Lebanese Parliament, Elias Bou Saab, expressed his optimism about the ceasefire and said colloquially, “Al-Mizan is Tabish,” while CNN quoted an informed source that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu agreed in principle to the ceasefire.
