What is on the table during Lebanon-Israel direct negotiations?

"Israel and Lebanon will meet for the third time this year to discuss a ceasefire and disarming Hezbollah. Beirut, Lebanon A new round of negotiations between Israel and Lebanon will take place on Thursday and Friday to save a fragile ceasefire repeatedly ignored by Israel which is set to expire on Saturday.

A new addition to the negotiators' list will be Lebanon's Military Attache to Washingt"
