Israel will have withdrawn all its soldiers from Lebanon by December 31, 2026.

A 10-day ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon was agreed upon in April 2026, with Lebanon seeking a full Israeli military withdrawal as part of a lasting solution. While the ceasefire agreement reportedly includes a requirement for Israeli troops to withdraw from south Lebanon, some reports suggest the ceasefire exists in name only amid ongoing conflict with Hezbollah. Israel's Prime Minister has also indicated a commitment to returning detainees in Gaza, with some advocating for total Israeli withdrawal from all Lebanese territory.
