Israel and Lebanon agree to implement a ceasefire




In a joint statement, Israel and Lebanon have agreed to implement a ceasefire but said it would require a "complete cessation" of fire by Hezbollah.

After US-led talks in Washington, the two states also agreed to create "pilot zones" in which the Lebanese armed forces "will take exclusive control of the territory to the exclusion of all non-state actors."

Further discussions aimed at "reaching a comprehensive agreement" will take place the week of 22 June, the statement added.
