The truce, agreed to on Friday afternoon, had appeared to largely hold until Lebanese state media reported Israeli airstrikes on towns and cities in southern Lebanon, beginning shortly after midnight, that killed several people. An Israeli military official said Hezbollah, an Iran-backed militia, had fired more than 50 projectiles at Israeli forces in southern Lebanon overnight, prompting Israeli strikes on what the military described as Hezbollah targets in the area. Hezbollah has yet to publicly comment. The conflict in Lebanon, once seen as a secondary front to the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran, has become one of the main obstacles to ending it. The United States and Iran agreed to a preliminary deal earlier this week, which stipulated an end to the fighting on all fronts, including Lebanon, and set the stage for more negotiations that had been set to begin Friday in Switzerland. Iran pulled out of those talks after Israeli strikes in Lebanon, three diplomats said on Friday. Vice President JD Vance was expected to be part of the talks in Switzerland, but the White House said late Thursday that his visit had been postponed. The status of the talks, and when they might begin, remains unclear, but much appears to hinge on whether the fighting in Lebanon can be contained. Israel said on Friday that it had stopped what it called its offensive military operations in Lebanon. The announcement came from Israel’s ambassador to the United States, Yechiel Leiter, who said his country was committed to a cease-fire as long as Hezbollah, the Iran-backed militant group, also halted its attacks. Mr. Leiter added that Israeli forces would remain in southern Lebanon. And later on Friday, the Israeli military said that it would continue to respond to what it called Hezbollah’s violations. A recent U.S. intelligence report said that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel was likely to continue military action against Hezbollah even if it hindered the peace efforts between the United States and Iran, according to American officials. Mr. Netanyahu is under intense domestic pressure to continue operations against Hezbollah’s attacks on northern Israel. Israel views Hezbollah as a critical threat, and Israeli officials do not believe the group’s attacks can go unanswered. The Iran cease-fire deal is deeply unpopular in Israel, where commentators criticize its failure to address Iran’s missile program, its requirement that U.S. forces leave the region and, especially, its constraints on Israeli military operations in Lebanon.
