The ceasefire is contingent on Hezbollah halting hostilities and withdrawing from southern Lebanon. Concurrently, the US House of Representatives passed a resolution limiting President Donald Trump's military authority regarding Iran, indicating growing bipartisan unease over his foreign policy decisions.
