US President Donald Trump will meet Lebanese and Israeli envoys at a new round of peace talks on Thursday, with Beirut seeking a one-month extension of a shaky ceasefire set to expire.<\/p>\n

With Trump struggling to push Iran into a deal on the wider regional war, the US is hoping for progress on Lebanon, which Israel has pounded in response to Hezbollah fire.<\/p>\n
