Lebanon's president seeks security deal with Israel

Lebanon's president said he wants a security agreement with Israel that could end years of hostility and serve as a prelude to peace. He also called for disarming Hezbollah, the Iran-backed armed group in Lebanon, without confrontation. The proposal comes amid ongoing Israeli attacks and ceasefire violations discussed separately by Lebanon's parliament speaker and Iran's foreign minister. A security deal would mark a significant shift in relations between the two countries, which have formally been in a state of war.
