Israel, under the leadership of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, is reportedly preparing a cease-fire plan in Lebanon as an early foreign policy 'gift' to President-elect Donald Trump. A close aide to Netanyahu informed Trump and Jared Kushner about this initiative, aiming to deliver a peace deal before Trump's inauguration in January. This move is seen as an attempt to strengthen ties with the incoming U.S. administration following Trump's landslide victory.
