Hezbollah wants to de-escalate hostilities on border, Israel says

The Lebanese militant group Hezbollah has said that it wants to de-escalate hostilities on the Israeli-Lebanon border, a day after fighting left two Israeli soldiers and a Spanish peacekeeper dead, Israel’s defense minister said Thursday.

Hezbollah sent the message through intermediaries, Israeli Defense Minister Moshe Yaalon told Israel’s Army Radio.
