Behind-the-scenes negotiations: The US and the Arab world seek a path to truce - Media.


The United States and Arab countries have started secret negotiations with Iran about a ceasefire on all fronts in the Middle East region.
Israel is currently not participating in this initiative, but high-ranking Israeli officials have been informed about it.
The impact of such efforts on the situation in the Gaza Strip, which is complex, is unclear at the moment due to Israel's intention to continue hostilities even after a potential agreement with Hamas.
"We are currently in a position of strength, the ceasefire will be on our terms," said one of the high-ranking Israeli officials.
The Lebanese group "Hezbollah" no longer requires a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip as a condition for achieving a truce in Lebanon.
Instead, they have decided to continue supporting Hamas and the Palestinians in their fight against Israel.
The deputy leader of "Hezbollah" stated that he supports the efforts of the Lebanese speaker to secure a truce without any conditions.
Earlier, Hezbollah officials spoke about a truce in Lebanon without linking it to the Gaza Strip.
The reasons for the change in Hezbollah's position are the massive displacement of supporters and Israel's ground campaign.
