Israel has presented the U.S. with a document outlining its conditions for ending the war in Lebanon, according to Axios. The demands include allowing the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) to engage in 'active enforcement' to ensure Hezbollah does not rearm and granting the Israeli Air Force freedom of operation in Lebanese airspace. U.S. officials, including President Biden's envoy Amos Hochstein, are set to visit Beirut on Monday to discuss a possible diplomatic solution with Lebanese officials. The document aims to facilitate the return of displaced civilians from both sides of the border to their homes.
