Hezbollah has informed the Lebanese Speaker of the House, Nabih Berri, that they agree to the 60-Day Ceasefire Proposal with Israel, or maybe not

White House: Leaked Lebanon proposal ‘doesn’t reflect current state of negotiations’

[IsraelTimes] The White House says in a statement that a leaked draft of the US ceasefire proposal between Israel and Hezbollah published earlier this evening on the Kan public broadcaster “doesn’t reflect the current state of negotiations.”

The proposal aired on Kan envisions a 60-day implementation period, during which time the Lebanese army will deploy along the border and confiscate Hezbollah arms in southern Lebanon.

IDF forces will be out of Lebanon within seven days of the end of hostilities, and will be replaced by the LAF, with UN peacekeepers facilitating the transition. Ultimately, there will be 10,000 LAF troops along the border with Israel.
If it were agreed to, it would just mean more chew toys for the IDF in some short period of time. The Lebanese army is good for parades, as far as I can tell — and even then only if the Hezbollah turbans among the troops are willing.
