Prime Minister Netanyahu will hold a narrow security discussion tonight focusing on Syria and Lebanon, Moriah Asraf and Doron Kadosh report for N13 / Army Radio. The meeting is convened against the backdrop of President Trump's recent call to introduce Syrian forces into Lebanon — a US position that marks a shift from earlier demands for an IDF reduction in southern Lebanon. As The Zioneer reported on June 18, the administration has been pressing for a full IDF withdrawal from southern Lebanon; Netanyahu has countered with a proposal for a "significant force thinning" instead. The Prime Minister's narrower forum here, rather than a full security cabinet session, signals the sensitive nature of the Syrian dimension. No timeline or official response from Damascus has been reported.
