The upcoming round of discussions between Israel and Lebanon is scheduled to occur in Rome during August 4-6, according to a senior US State Department official on Tuesday.

Participants intend to emphasize execution of the trilateral structure, settlement of boundary matters, and enlargement of trial zones in southern Lebanon where Lebanese forces will confirm clearance of Hezbollah militants and armaments.

The opening trial area offers a real chance for tangible advancement by reestablishing Lebanese state control via confirmed removal of militant groups and fostering confidence for subsequent phases.

Insights from the first trial zones will refine the approach, allowing measured expansion over time.

Negotiators further aim to pursue a broad peace and security pact, the official indicated.

This follows the prior week meeting between Lebanese President Joseph Aoun and US President Donald Trump.

The Trump administration remains dedicated to the process, the official stated, noting that all parties approach the talks with notable momentum after the leaders meeting and steady rollout of the trial zones.

The official also highlighted that the trilateral structure represents the sole route to enduring peace and that complete execution clearly benefits both nations.
