00:00It's very encouraging that we've now got a situation where Hezbollah will be moving out
00:06of southern Lebanon, the Israeli forces as well.
00:10It'll allow a million people, a quarter of the population in Lebanon, who have been displaced
00:14to return to their homes.
00:17And so it's very good news.
00:18What we now need to see, of course, is the release of the hostages in Gaza, and that
00:22must now be an important focus.
