Iran Press/ West Asia: According to the source, Lebanese parliament speaker Nabih Berri informed Qatar and Egypt that Hezbollah has agreed to "divide fronts" and implement UN Security Council resolution 1701 on the condition that the problem of settling the conflict in Lebanon is part of the peace initiatives of the Gaza Strip.
The source said that ways to settle the confrontation between Hezbollah and Israel had been discussed in Doha, where delegates from Qatar, the United States, and Israel discussed the settlement of the situation in the Palestinian enclave on Sunday.
Egyptian and Qatari officials are expected to meet with Hamas and a high-ranking Qatari delegation is to visit Beirut to specify Lebanon’s positions, the source said.
The meeting in Doha "has made a breach in the wall of difficulties," the source said, adding that the consultations on Gaza have yielded "a slight progress," which indicates Israel and Hamas’ readiness to exchange hostages held in the enclave and Palestinian prisoners held in Israeli prisons.
The Palestinian movement Hamas and the Lebanese Shiite organization Hezbollah are coordinating their positions on a ceasefire as part of the settlement of the conflict with Israel, the Al Arabiya TV channel said, citing a source in Hamas.
"We are coordinating positions with Hezbollah on a ceasefire. Two fronts cannot be divided," the source told the television channel.
According to the source, Hamas wants to reach a "comprehensive rather than a partial ceasefire deal."
