A senior defense source has explained the terms of the ceasefire with Hezbollah and Lebanon, which will likely include a phased 60-day withdrawal by the IDF from southern Lebanon and additional protections such as a US letter of guarantees and American supervision of UNIFIL. The US letter will outline different scenarios in which Israel can act against Hezbollah violations. Israel is expected to continue collecting intelligence on threats within Lebanon from the air. UNIFIL will remain involved in limited coordination capacity. Israel views the ceasefire as having three components: its right to attack Hezbollah when it violates the deal, side guarantees from the US, and the deal itself.
