## Prediction

Within 24 hours, Israel is likely to signal—through leaks, off-record briefings, or carefully worded statements—conditional readiness to withdraw ground forces from southern Lebanon as part of an integrated ceasefire package with Iran and Hezbollah. The message will emphasize security guarantees and international monitoring to manage domestic backlash and deter Hezbollah re-entrenchment. This will shift diplomatic focus to verification mechanisms and the timeline for Hezbollah redeployments north of the Litani. Confirmation would be Israeli cabinet or security officials referencing a Lebanon pullback tied to the MoU; disconfirmation would be categorical public statements that Israeli forces will remain indefinitely in southern Lebanon.

## Drivers

- FLASH reporting that Israel’s withdrawal from southern Lebanon is part of the emerging US–Iran framework
- Iran’s narrative portraying Israel’s exit from Lebanon as a victory condition
- War fatigue and reserve strain inside Israel after prolonged multi-front tensions
- US pressure to consolidate a regional ceasefire that includes the Lebanon front
