From the Associated Press: BEIRUT (AP) — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Tuesday that he would recommend his cabinet adopt a United States-brokered ceasefire agreement with Lebanon’s Hezbollah, as Israeli warplanes struck across Lebanon, killing at least 23 people.
The Israeli military also issued a flurry of evacuation warnings — a sign it was aiming to inflict punishment on Hezbollah down to the final moments before any ceasefire takes hold. For the first time in the conflict, Israeli ground troops reached parts of Lebanon’s Litani River, a focal point of the emerging deal.
In a televised statement, Netanyahu said he would present the ceasefire to Cabinet ministers later on Tuesday, setting the stage for an end to nearly 14 months of fighting.
Netanyahu said the vote was expected later Tuesday. It was not immediately clear when the ceasefire would go into effect, and the exact terms of the deal were not released. The deal does not affect Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza, which shows no signs of ending.

Prime minister Netanyahu announces ceasefire agreement with Lebanon and appeals to the public with 3 reasons it is needed now:
1. Providing rest for soldiers + rearming, which won’t happen until Biden is out
2. Isolating Hamas
3. Shifting focus to Iran

“As part of the operations against Hezbollah, our troops conducted targeted operations in this area and confiscated weapons that would have been used against Israel and its civilians.”
