The Lebanese and Israeli states have fought several wars and are still officially at war.
In 2019, the Israeli government announced that it had agreed to hold talks with Lebanon, mediated by the United States, to resolve the dispute over the maritime borders.
Notably, a US official announced Tuesday that talks Washington is negotiating to demarcate maritime borders between Lebanon and Israel are making “gradual progress,” expressing hope to sign a framework agreement within weeks that would allow Lebanon and Israel start negotiations to resolve this conflict.
