Israeli and American officials said an agreement that would "end the war between Israel and the Shiite Hezbollah movement could be reached within weeks," the publication said. Possible agreements, according to officials, include a declaration of a ceasefire followed by a 60-day transition period. Hawksteen and McGurk went on the trip after Israel signaled it was willing to move forward with such a deal, Axios notes.
The IDF has advised Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Galant to seek a diplomatic settlement to end the fighting with Hezbollah and avoid getting bogged down in the war in Lebanon, people familiar with the matter said.
