Hezbollah has rejected key provisions of the U.S.-brokered ceasefire proposal between Israel and Lebanon, casting doubt on efforts to stabilize the border after weeks of escalating clashes. The group said the terms were unfavorable and failed to address what it described as Israeli provocations.
According to sources, Hezbollah objected to clauses requiring a halt to rocket and drone attacks without reciprocal guarantees from Israel. The rejection underscores the difficulty of securing lasting peace, as previous ceasefire attempts have collapsed amid mutual distrust and continued hostilities.
U.S. mediators had hoped the proposal would pave the way for de-escalation, with international observers monitoring compliance. However, Hezbollah’s stance signals that negotiations remain fragile, and the risk of renewed violence persists along the border.
Regional analysts warn that unless both sides commit to balanced terms, the ceasefire may unravel, leaving civilians vulnerable to further conflict. Diplomatic channels are expected to continue pressing for compromise in the coming days.
