Israel and Lebanon are due to hold working-level talks in Florida, according to a US official. The announcement points to Washington’s role in arranging contacts between the two governments. Working-level meetings usually bring together officials who handle technical or practical elements of a negotiation before leaders or ministers meet. The statement did not identify the participants or provide a detailed agenda. Holding the meeting in Florida also underlines the United States’ role as mediator and host. Observers will look for signs of a follow-up mechanism, security coordination or progress toward a broader negotiating track. The talks take place against the backdrop of continued Israel-Lebanon tensions and wider instability across the Middle East.
