Senior leaders of Hezbollah, speaking through Nabih Berri, the Speaker of Parliament in Lebanon, have proposed initial ceasefire talks with Israel.

Inside Israel, a debate is unfolding over the next step. One option is a broader military campaign aimed at eliminating Hezbollah, which has launched attacks reaching as far as Tel Aviv. Another path would seek a strategic victory by weakening or severing Iran’s influence over the group.

Analysts say Hezbollah—long viewed as a proxy of Tehran—may be signaling a willingness to stand down, presenting Israel with what some see as a rare opportunity to reshape the balance of power in the region.
