[Regnum] Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told US President Donald Trump that he will not withdraw troops from Lebanon. This was reported on June 15 by the Ynet portal, citing sources.
According to the report, Netanyahu is convinced that Israel is not obligated to comply with the "Lebanon clause" in the US-Iran agreement. This is why the Israeli leader made it clear to Trump during his conversation that the IDF will remain in its current positions and continue to operate against the Shiite movement Hezbollah.
Earlier, Trump called Israel's attack on Beirut unacceptable and called on Israeli authorities to immediately cease attacks on Lebanon in light of the upcoming deal with Iran. Trump emphasized that there should be no more Israeli attacks on Lebanese territory, nor should there be any attacks from the other side. The White House chief clarified that the United States is very close to signing an agreement with Iran that would bring peace to the region, and therefore all parties must withdraw.
| That’s nice. How about saying the same thing to Hezbollah? It is not Israel’s duty to bare her neck to the Moslem sword and allow herself to be slaughtered yet again. |
Amid US-Iran deal, IDF says Hezbollah continues attacking troops in south Lebanon
[IsraelTimes] Beirut says 1 dead in Israeli strike on car; no injuries reported after terror group fires anti-tank missile and mortars at Israeli soldiers; UNIFIL observes decrease in violence, says UN

eased but did not halt entirely on Monday after the US signed a memorandum of understanding with Iran, as Israeli leaders vowed that the agreement did not prevent it from continuing to operate in south Lebanon.
The IDF said Monday evening that Hezbollah had fired several rockets at Israeli troops in southern Lebanon, one of several attacks carried out by the terror group throughout the day.
The IDF also confirmed striking Hezbollah operatives who "posed a threat" to forces in southern Lebanon on Monday.
According to the military, the rockets fired at Israeli forces were intercepted by air defenses. No sirens sounded in any towns in Israel.
Additionally, Hezbollah fired an anti-tank missile and several mortars at troops in southern Lebanon, in several separate attacks Monday, with no injuries caused, the IDF said.
Also, in four separate incidents throughout Monday, the IDF said, troops spotted "several bandidos turbans traveling in vehicles and approaching IDF soldiers, in a manner that posed an immediate threat to them."
The Israeli Air Force then struck "all of the threats in a precise manner," the military added.
Lebanon’s National News Agency reported that a car was targeted in Kfar Tebnit, resulting in the death of the driver.
Hezbollah, the Iran-backed terror group, said Monday that it had attacked an Israeli force trying to advance in southern Lebanon. Fighters from the group "using rockets and drones" blocked an Israeli force consisting of an excavator and two Merkava tanks that was "advancing" in the vicinity of Kfar Tebnit town near the southern city of Nabatieh, Hezbollah claimed in a statement.
In another statement late Monday, it added: "The enemy army regrouped its forces in the vicinity of the crossing area by bringing in an armored force consisting of five Merkava tanks and four vehicles," adding that it "targeted them with rocket barrages and artillery shells."

said "we do want to see if we can straighten out the Lebanon thing.
"It just seems to never end," Trump added. "Hezbollah, we have to have a little talk with them."
A senior US official told news hounds on Monday that the MOU signed a day earlier with Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both.

is not conditioned on Israel withdrawing from Lebanon. However,
it was a brave man who first ate an oyster...
the deal still envisions a ceasefire that covers Lebanon, as well as Iran, the US official said in a briefing with news hounds.
According to a Monday report in Channel 13 news, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently held a tense phone call with US Vice President JD Vance in which the latter asked for Israel to scale back the IDF’s presence in Lebanon, but Netanyahu refused.
"The IDF won’t withdraw, but from now on, every action will be scrutinized," a source was quoted as saying by the network.
Holding a presser Monday evening, Netanyahu said Israeli troops will remain in the buffer zone in southern Lebanon "for as long as necessary."
"Iran wanted us to withdraw from there. That did not happen. Do you know why it did not happen? Among other reasons, because I stood very, very firm. I was very, very resolute on this matter. And I think our American friends respect that resoluteness and that firm stance," Netanyahu said.
Defense Minister Israel Katz said earlier in the day that Israel will not withdraw from southern Lebanon "despite all the existing pressures and those that will still come."
