The ambassadors of Israel and Lebanon began a new round of direct talks in Washington on after US President Donald Trump said he had received commitments to de-escalation from both sides. The fourth meeting between representatives of the two countries, which do not have diplomatic relations, is taking place at the State Department and is scheduled to last two days. It comes as Israeli drone strikes on southern Lebanon on June 2 killed eight people, including two children and their father, and as Iran-backed Hezbollah continued launching drones at Israeli troops.
