The Israeli and Lebanese delegations have arrived in Rome for the latest round of talks, according to Amichai Stein (i24NEWS). The arrival follows the opening of the sixth round of negotiations on Monday evening, as The Zioneer reported.
On Monday, Jul 13 at 20:35 Jerusalem, The Zioneer reported that the sixth round had opened at the US embassy in Rome, without military representatives. The talks are being led by the US ambassador to Lebanon and the Israeli and Lebanese ambassadors to Washington. Earlier, on Sunday Jul 12, The Zioneer reported that Lebanon would attend the talks, set for July 24–25, despite Hezbollah's opposition, and that an Israeli official said Israel would not withdraw from Lebanon if Hezbollah remained. The current round follows the fifth round of talks held in Washington in June, which The Zioneer reported on Jun 23, focusing on withdrawal timetables and prisoner releases.
The talks are part of a broader US-mediated diplomatic effort between Israel and Lebanon, conducted alongside the US-Iran track. No details on the agenda or expected duration of the current round have been reported, nor whether military representatives will be included at a later stage.
