On Sunday, Lebanese President Michel Aoun reiterated his argument that the country should negotiate with Israel after Israel threatened to demolish all homes near the border.
“It is true that Israel may want to do the same thing to southern Lebanon as it did to Gaza,” the president said in a televised speech. “We must at least save the homes that have not yet been destroyed,” Aoun continued.
In addition to the house demolitions, there have been suggestions that Israeli forces may remain stationed in southern Lebanon in what they call a "security zone."
In Lebanon, 1,422 people have been killed and at least 1.2 million displaced since the war began on March 2.
