Relations between Israel and the Trump administration are under pressure, with potential implications for a U.S.-Iran peace deal. U.S. intelligence suggests that Israeli attacks in Lebanon might undermine the fragile agreement.
In the southern Lebanese village of Qlaileh, a mother walks with her son near a destroyed home. Few residents remain in the village after heavy Israeli airstrikes forced many to flee once again to safer areas. These attacks have heightened concerns that the situation could disrupt U.S.-Iran talks.
Israel has been mostly sidelined from the negotiations, yet its continued military actions against Hezbollah in Lebanon are seen as a possible threat to ongoing discussions. U.S. spy agencies are closely monitoring the situation as it evolves.
