The Lebanon Program at the Middle East Institute would like to cordially invite you to join a webinar on the looming Lebanon-Israel conflict.
As the violence between Hezbollah and Israel intensifies, the upcoming webinar aims to examine whether ongoing U.S. diplomatic efforts can prevent a full-scale war from breaking out. Our expert panel will analyze the framework of U.S. mediation, dissect Hezbollah and Israel's strategic calculations, assess local costs and the role of the Lebanese government, and weigh the wider regional implications.
