The ceasefire deal between the U.S., Israel and Iran is set to expire early next week.

On Friday night, Trump said that attacks on Iran could resume if no deal is reached.

Meanwhile, a 10-day ceasefire is in effect to pause the fighting between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon, something Iran required in order to continue talks with the U.S.

Israel says that it will have full control of the Lebanese town of Ben Shabil, quote, within days.

The town has become the center of intense fighting.

It's part of land that Israel says it's seizing from Lebanon to create what it calls a buffer zone so Hezbollah can't fire rockets into Israel.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz both joined invading troops inside Lebanon over the weekend, where Katz said Israel would remove the threat, quote, just as we did in Gaza, including demolishing homes so they can't become, quote, terror outposts.

Lebanon says nearly 40,000 houses have been destroyed or heavily damaged, mainly in the south, in the past five weeks.

Lebanon's Ministry of Health says 97 people were killed by Israeli strikes, mainly in the south, on Saturday alone, including three emergency workers.

Meanwhile, Hezbollah says it has continued attacks on northern Israel and Israeli troops inside Lebanon.

Israel says it struck more than 200 Hezbollah targets over the weekend.

Israel and Lebanon's ambassadors to the U.S.

are set to meet in Washington to discuss a ceasefire.

But at a Hezbollah rally in downtown Beirut Saturday, supporters filled the streets for blocks, waving flags and chanting against negotiations.

Many said that after the Israeli attacks last week, which killed more than 350 people in a single day, they don't trust the talks will benefit them.
