According to a US State Department official, the meeting aims to ease hostilities along the border between the two countries.\n\nThe official emphasized that the implementation of the deal remains crucial for restoring Lebanon's sovereignty and ensuring Israel's security.\n\nThe Lebanese and Israeli ambassadors are also scheduled to meet in Washington next week. This development follows the seventh round of negotiations in Rome, which ended in August without resolving key territorial issues.",
