Israeli attacks and the destruction of villages have killed thousands and set off \u200ba displacement crisis.<\/div>\n<div>Hezbollah has continued to launch attacks on Israeli positions in the south this week, including with explosive \u2060drones that have killed and injured troops.<\/div>\n<div>Two Israeli officials, including a senior official close to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, said Israel was holding talks with \u200bthe U.S. over maintaining its troop deployment in southern Lebanon. The senior official described those talks as &#8220;stubborn&#8221;.<\/div>\n<div>The military, which in April published a map marking its \u200bso-called buffer zone in southern Lebanon, released a new map that shows its troops are operating several kilometres deeper into the country, including near the Hezbollah stronghold of Nabatieh north of the Litani River.<\/div>\n<div>Israeli troops have been operating in some of those areas for several weeks, but the military had not yet published a map showing the expanded \u200bzone of control.<\/div>\n<div>In the map published on Thursday, the military described the territory, marked in dark red, as: &#8220;The security zone in which IDF (Israel Defense \u200bForces) soldiers are operating in southern Lebanon&#8221;.<\/div>\n<h2>IRAN DEAL HAS EXPOSED TENSIONS BETWEEN NETANYAHU, TRUMP<\/h2>\n<div>Netanyahu and Donald Trump have repeatedly clashed in recent weeks as the U.S. president sought to extricate \u200chimself from \u2060the war against Iran he jointly launched with his longtime Israeli ally.<\/div>\n<div>Israeli officials have voiced anger with the U.S.-Iran pact, which the two signed on Wednesday, saying it didn&#8217;t go far enough to address Israeli concerns over Iran&#8217;s nuclear program and would tie down their military operations in Lebanon.<\/div>\n<div>Trump has made no secret of his frustration with Netanyahu and has criticized Israel&#8217;s military actions in Lebanon, saying it was unnecessary to bomb entire apartment buildings to hunt \u200bHezbollah militants.<\/div>\n<div>The two Israeli officials, who spoke \u200bto Reuters on condition of \u2060anonymity to discuss sensitive talks with Washington, said Israel would not back down on its position that its troops would remain deployed in Lebanon.<\/div>\n<div>One of the officials said the outcome of the talks would ultimately depend on whether \u200bTrump &#8220;decides to force the issue&#8221; by threatening repercussions if Israel does not abide by the interim pact&#8217;s terms.<\/div>\n<div>There \u200bhas been no indication \u2060that Trump&#8217;s commentary will translate into concrete actions &#8212; such as withholding military aid or slowing arms shipments &#8212; that could force Israel to rethink its military tactics.<\/div>\n<div>Israel describes the territory it has seized in Lebanon, Gaza and Syria as &#8220;buffer zones&#8221; between it and its enemies, a core facet of Israel&#8217;s recent security policy.<\/div>\n<div>The Iran war \u2060pact appeared \u200bto leave Israel with some &#8220;wiggle room&#8221;, said Jonathan Rynhold, a senior researcher at Israel&#8217;s Bar-Ilan \u200bUniversity.<\/div>\n<div>&#8220;The reference to the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Lebanon certainly implies that Israel will have to withdraw,&#8221; he said.<\/div>\n<div>&#8220;However, it also implies that Hezbollah should not be able to hold \u200bweapons because that is a threat to the sovereignty of the government of Lebanon.&#8221;<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/reliablemovingcrews.com\/?p=2309\">Dollar hits one-year high on Fed hike bets; Japan warns on yen<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/reliablemovingcrews.com\/?p=2308\">First tankers cross strait after Iran deal; Israeli strikes stir doubt in Lebanon<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/reliablemovingcrews.com\/?p=2306\">Morning Bid: Kevin who?
