Breakthrough in war in Middle East as Israel and Hezbollah agree ceasefire | BBC News
Israel and Hezbollah have agreed a ceasefire in Lebanon which could bring an end to more than a year of fighting there that has claimed thousands of lives. The office of Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his security cabinet had approved the US ceasefire plan.
It’s understood that the initial 60-day ceasefire will see Israeli troops pulling out of Lebanon and Hezbollah fighters withdrawing north of the Litani river, away from the border with Israel. Thousands of troops from the Lebanese Army are expected to be deployed to the area and an international committee will monitor the implementation of the ceasefire.
President Biden said the ceasefire was intended to become “a permanent cessation of hostilities” and a crucial step to achieving wider peace in the Middle East. Lebanon’s Prime Minister Najib Mikati said the deal was a “fundamental step towards restoring calm and stability in Lebanon and enabling displaced persons to return to their towns and cities”.
The announcement came after some of the heaviest fighting between Israel and Hezbollah for months, with Israeli airstrikes hitting Beirut, Israeli troops moving further into southern Lebanon and Hezbollah firing more rockets into northern Israel.
The deal does not bring an end to the war in Gaza, which began following the 7th October attacks on Israel by Hamas. The Israeli assault on Gaza has claimed more than 40,000 lives according to the Hamas-run administration there.

After Charlie Kirk’s death, will young people still vote Republican, and could the battle for his legacy cost Donald Trump crucial votes in this year’s midterm elections?
This week marks the start of hearings which will determine whether prosecutors have enough evidence to bring a murder case against Kirk’s alleged killer, Tyler Robinson.
The hearings have once again highlighted Charlie Kirk’s influence on young people and the battle among some Republicans to secure his legacy.
His death remains the subject of conspiracy theories among prominent far-right influencers such as Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens while candidates in this year’s midterm elections have used his endorsement in campaign ads.
But alongside this is also an administration that is increasingly unpopular with young people who voted for Trump in part to deal with cost-of-living pressures and a desire for no more wars.
Can the Republican Party keep hold of the voters that Charlie Kirk helped deliver, and where will they go if they don’t vote for the party?

Jackdaw boss warns of winter fuel shortage risk if North Sea gas field not approved | BBC News
The owners of the Jackdaw gas platform in the North Sea say it is “hyper critical” that the UK government approves production to avoid the risk of domestic supply shortages this winter.
Speaking to BBC News at the field 150 miles east of Aberdeen, Adura chief executive Neil McCulloch said the project was in its final stages and could meet 6% of the UK’s gas from 1 October.
The industry regulator is considering revised applications for production at Jackdaw, and Adura’s Rosebank oil field west of Shetland, after a court ruled that both had been unlawfully approved.
Environmental campaigners say this summer’s deadly and record-breaking heatwaves demonstrate the need to tackle climate change by rejecting both projects.
