Afghan Voice Agency (AVA): Kan-Risht Beit Radio, citing several officials in the Israeli cabinet, claimed that a number of American and Israeli officials discussed and examined this issue on the sidelines of the recent visit of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Washington.
However, Kan Radio claimed that the understandings reached in this regard are still in the early stages and that the exact details of this issue, including the number of troops and the locations where the Israeli troops will be stationed, are to be further discussed.
This claim was published this afternoon, while the Lebanese presidential office announced that it is completely opposed to the continued presence of Israeli forces in southern Lebanon and emphasizes the withdrawal of these forces on time.
According to Radio Kan, Netanyahu's cabinet is trying to convince the US government that the continued presence of the Zionist regime's army in some areas in southern Lebanon is necessary to guarantee the security of Israeli settlers.
Following this report, Kan11 also claimed that the Israeli army has begun building five military positions inside Lebanese territory, and this action was taken after Tel Aviv "obtained US consent to deploy its forces in these positions even after the end of the withdrawal period."
According to the agreements made between Lebanon and the US, the Israeli army must withdraw from Lebanese territory on February 18, that is, on Tuesday next week.
Kan says that Tel Aviv had previously asked the US to extend the presence of its military in southern Lebanon for another 10 days, but this request was rejected.
However, the Israeli network claimed that the US agreed to an alternative request from Israel; a request that would allow Israeli soldiers to be stationed at five specific positions for observation in southern Lebanon.
Officials have not yet responded to this claim, although yesterday afternoon, in response to similar claims, they stressed that the Israeli army must withdraw from southern Lebanon on the due date.
According to the ceasefire agreement signed between Israel and Lebanon, the Israeli army forces were supposed to withdraw from southern Lebanon on January 26 last month.
This deadline was extended to February 18 after much conflict; but some sources recently reported that the Israeli regime has once again requested to extend the presence of its forces in Lebanese territory.
