US Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Thursday said that there has been progress on an understanding of requirements for the effective implementation of UN Security Council Resolution 1701, which would be the basis of a diplomatic resolution to the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon.
"It's important to make sure we have clarity, both from Lebanon and from Israel, about what would be required under 1701 to get its effective implementation," Blinken said.
