The President of the Republic, General Joseph Aoun, received a phone call from US Vice President J.D. Vance, US President's Senior Advisor Jared Kushner, and Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdul Rahman bin Jassim Al Thani. The discussion addressed the issue of establishing a ceasefire in Lebanon, stopping the Israeli military escalation, and the steps that must be taken in this regard. The possibility of forming a special cell to follow up on these efforts was also discussed, which would contribute to calming the situation and preventing the expansion of escalation.
