Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said that any peace agreement reached with Lebanon must be one that “lasts for generations”, AFP reports.

“Lebanon has approached us. In the past month, it has reached out several times to begin direct peace talks,” Netanyahu said in a televised statement.

“I have given my approval, but on two conditions: we want the dismantling of Hezbollah’s weapons, and we want a real peace agreement that will last for generations. “
