Israel Releases Lebanese Detainees Amid US-Mediated Talks with Lebanon
Israel has released five Lebanese detainees, including Malek Kamal Ghazi, after determining they had no links to militant groups, as part of ongoing US-mediated talks with Lebanon. The releases are linked to negotiations aimed at recovering the remains of Jewish community leaders missing since the 1980s. While these steps mark progress, dozens of other Lebanese prisoners, including civilians and Hezbollah members, remain in Israeli custody. The agreement also involves efforts toward Israeli withdrawal from southern Lebanon and disarmament of Hezbollah, which the group opposes.
