The Lebanese army began deploying to the southern coastal city of Naqoura following the Israeli military's withdrawal as part of the ceasefire agreement made in November, the US and Lebanon said on Monday.
Hochstein, also the Middle East advisor to US President Joe Biden, insisted the phased withdrawal of Israeli forces is going according to plan but did not confirm whether the pullout would be completed within the 60-day limit under the conditions of the deal.
"I have every confidence from what I saw today and what I get reports from the team on the ground that things are going as they should be, and I think the Lebanese army is doing its job very, very well," Hochstein said.
