- US delegation in Lebanon to discuss Israel 'pilot zone' withdrawal
A US military delegation met with Lebanon's army to discuss Israel's withdrawal from a 'pilot zone' in southern Lebanon under a June 26 framework agreement. The agreement, rejected by Hezbollah, does not set a timetable for Israel's full withdrawal, which it vows to delay as long as Hezbollah remains armed. Upcoming talks in Rome will precede Lebanon's President Joseph Aoun's visit to Washington.
