Jerusalem and Beirut frustrated with Trump, hampering US plan to phase IDF out of Lebanon
The US is using Israel-Lebanon negotiations to push for an Israeli military withdrawal from parts of southern Lebanon, but neither Jerusalem nor Beirut is cooperating after the Trump administration agreed to a deal that grants Iran influence in Lebanon. The US plan to phase out the IDF from Lebanon is being hindered by the frustration of both Israeli and Lebanese authorities with Trump's approach.
