Israel hands Washington a document of principles to end the war on Lebanon

Axios reported, citing American and Israeli officials, that Israel presented the United States last week with a document of principles regarding its conditions for reaching a diplomatic solution to end the war in Lebanon.


The report added that Amos Hochstein, the US President's envoy, will visit Beirut today to discuss with Lebanese officials the possibility of a diplomatic solution to the conflict.


Walla website reported, citing American and Israeli officials, that the document of principles allows the displaced on both sides of the border to return to their homes.


The document also allows the Israeli army to ensure that Hezbollah does not rearm itself, and gives the Israeli Air Force freedom to operate in Lebanese airspace, according to the website.


The website indicated - quoting an American source - that the international community may not agree to Israel's conditions included in the document of principles.


It is noteworthy that since September 23, Israel has expanded the scope of its war and air strikes to include most of Lebanon, including the capital Beirut, and has also begun a "limited" ground invasion in the south of the country. The aggression on Lebanon has resulted in more than 2,350 deaths, 10,906 injuries, including a large number of women and children, in addition to more than 1,340,000 displaced persons, according to official Lebanese data.
