According to a report, the United States demanded that Israel refrain from carrying out exceptional operations in southern Lebanon. In response, the political echelon ordered the IDF to freeze all operations considered 'sensitive' in the area.
A report published Friday evening states that the United States conveyed a demand to Israel to avoid 'exceptional operations' in southern Lebanon. In accordance, the political echelon froze all IDF operations classified as 'sensitive' in the area. Earlier reports in June indicated that the US had asked Israel to reduce military activity in Lebanon to preserve a potential agreement, and that the IDF had been ordered to restrict offensive operations and obtain approval for significant strikes. The current report suggests a further tightening of operational constraints on the IDF in southern Lebanon, though the exact scope of 'sensitive' operations remains unspecified.
