The Lebanese Army has started deploying troops to a designated “pilot zone” in southern Lebanon after Israeli forces began withdrawing from the area under a US-mediated agreement reached last month. Military units entered the village of Zawtar al-Gharbiyeh in Nabatieh district, marking the first phase of a plan aimed at restoring Lebanese state control. The agreement is expected to include the gradual withdrawal of Israeli troops from parts of southern Lebanon and efforts to disarm Hezbollah, the Iran-backed armed group that has long operated in the region. The development comes ahead of Lebanese President Joseph Aoun’s meeting with US President Donald Trump in Washington, where Lebanon is expected to seek support for a complete Israeli withdrawal and increased assistance for its armed forces. Officials hope the move will help reduce tensions along the border and create conditions for greater stability after months of deadly conflict that devastated communities on both sides.<br /><br />Follow for the latest updates.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />#Lebanon #LebaneseArmy #Israel #Hezbollah #MiddleEast #SouthLebanon #JosephAoun #DonaldTrump #Ceasefire #BorderSecurity #USMediation #Geopolitics #BreakingNews #WorldNews #InternationalRelations #LatestNews #NewsUpdate #NewsAlert #GlobalNews #CurrentAffairs #TopStories #Headlines #DevelopingStory #LiveUpdates #NewsFlash #TrendingNow #ViralNews #TodayNews #thenewswhirl
