According to the new US ambassador, the ceasefire plan is starting to take shape.
Israel has destroyed an 8-story residential building in the center of Beirut in the early hours of the morning.
According to eyewitnesses, at least four missiles hit the house. Several neighboring houses were also damaged.
At least four people died and 23 were injured in the explosions, reports the al-Manar news agency of the Hezbollah organization.
It was already the fourth Israeli airstrike on downtown Beirut this week.
Wishes for peace in the air
A representative of the US administration Amos Hochstein has continued its negotiations between the parties.
Several sources, for example of The New York Times according to him, he is hopeful of achieving a ceasefire.
According to the proposal, the ceasefire would last 60 days, and would hopefully remain permanent. Israeli forces would withdraw from southern Lebanon and Hezbollah forces from south of the Litani river.
UN forces and the Lebanese army would be reinforced in the buffer zone in between. At the same time, a new peacekeeping unit led by the United States would arrive there, whose task would be to ensure that Hezbollah and Israel stay out of the area.
