Lebanese President Urges US to Halt Israeli Strikes After Fatal Attacks

On September 6, 2026, Lebanese President Joseph Aoun called on the United States to intervene and stop Israeli strikes after four people were killed in southern Lebanon. Aoun held Israel fully responsible for the ongoing escalation, which Lebanese officials described as a 'dangerous escalation.' In parallel, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz reiterated that Israel will not withdraw from Lebanon until Hezbollah is disarmed. Meanwhile, a Sunni MP suggested that Lebanon could sign the Abraham Accords once Hezbollah is disarmed, and Iran's embassy in Beirut clarified its official position on the developments.
