Hezbollah Open to Indirect Ceasefire Talks If Israel Halts Attacks

Hezbollah's leader asserts that battlefield developments, not politics, will end the conflict with Israel.

Hezbollah's new chief, Naim Qassem, emphasizes that only military developments can halt the conflict with Israel.
Qassem succeeded Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah after his death in Israeli strikes in September.
Indirect negotiations could occur through the Lebanese state if Israel ceases its military actions.
Talks would require full protection of Lebanese sovereignty, a condition outlined by Hezbollah.
Israel aims to ensure its security and return displaced residents, with a U.S.-proposed 60-day truce under discussion.
