The deal, which reportedly has the support of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, could see the nearly two-month-old Israeli incursion to come to an end.

If it backs the deal, Israel is expected to receive assurances from the US that it can act against violations of the deal as long as it is coordinated with Washington.
At the same time, a US lead oversight committee will be in charge of monitoring Hezbollah's activities within Lebanon.
