Israel refuses to withdraw troops from southern Lebanon amid US-mediated negotiations.

Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz announced that Israeli troops will remain in southern Lebanon, complicating US-Iran peace talks and US-mediated Israel-Lebanon withdrawal negotiations. The US-Iran memorandum of understanding signed the previous week linked a ceasefire with Iran to an end to fighting in Lebanon, a connection both Israel and Lebanon reportedly oppose. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio is touring the Gulf to defend the Iran deal and push for a phased Israeli pullback via pilot zones, but talks have been described as unproductive.
