Israel's Partial Withdrawal from Southern Lebanon: Diplomatic Move or Resilience Test?

A Haaretz report reveals Israel's plan for a partial troop withdrawal from the 'Blue Line' in southern Lebanon—a buffer zone since the 2006 war. Negotiations between Israeli and Lebanese representatives are scheduled this week to select pilot areas to be handed over to the Lebanese army under strict US supervision. The move aims to de-escalate border tensions but leaves significant questions about Hezbollah's commitment, the Lebanese army's capacity, and long-term stability.
