Tensions between the two have escalated, potentially jeopardizing ongoing peace negotiations. Following the U.S. and Israel's military actions against Iran, Hezbollah resumed attacks on Israel, raising concerns about the stability of a potential deal. A senior U.S. official clarified that Israel's withdrawal from southern Lebanon is not a condition for the ceasefire, which would allow Israel to defend itself against Hezbollah attacks. The Israeli Air Force reported intercepting multiple rockets from Hezbollah aimed at Israeli forces. President Donald Trump criticized Israel's recent military operations in Beirut, suggesting they could disrupt peace talks with Iran. Trump emphasized Israel's right to defend itself but questioned the necessity of responding to minor attacks.

Iran's support for Hezbollah remains a significant factor in the conflict, with U.S. efforts aimed at strengthening the Lebanese government to reduce Hezbollah's influence.
