## Prediction

Within seven days, if US–Iran mediation advances into a concrete ceasefire framework, southern Lebanon is likely to experience a short-term reduction in displacement and casualties, allowing limited humanitarian access and repairs. However, the entrenchment of an Israeli security zone and unresolved political issues mean returns will be cautious and many families will remain in limbo. Aid organizations will rush to exploit any pause to restore basic services and replenish supplies. Confirmation would be formal or informal ceasefire announcements and increased aid convoys; a collapse of talks accompanied by renewed large-scale strikes would erase the breather.

## Drivers

- Statements of 'major progress' in mediation to end Lebanon war
- Emerging High Level Committee for technical negotiations
- On-the-ground pattern of limited but entrenched conflict
