US envoy in Beirut as ceasefire talks under way | BBC News


US President Joe Biden’s Middle East envoy Amos Hochstein has arrived in Beirut in an attempt to find a negotiated end to the war between Hezbollah and Israel.

Hochstein says all parties are working on producing a formula that brings an end to the Israel-Hezbollah conflict "once and for all".

It is his first visit to Lebanon since Israel escalated its military campaign against Hezbollah four weeks ago.

On his previous trips Hochstein has tried, and failed, to prevent the war which has inflicted a heavy toll on people and infrastructure in Lebanon.

Israel has carried out several air strikes across Lebanon, saying it is targeting branches of a bank used by Hezbollah.
