US Mideast envoy Amos Hochstein arrived Wednesday in Israel to try to bring talks to secure a ceasefire with Hezbollah to a close after making “additional progress” in a second meeting with Lebanese parliament speaker Nabih Berri in Beirut.

Axar.az reports that, citing The Times of Israel, Hochstein’s schedule had not yet been finalized, though the Axios news site reported that the veteran envoy was set to meet with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday morning. After arriving in Israel, Hochstein met with Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer, Netanyahu’s top adviser.

Speaking in Lebanon after his second meeting with Berri, Hochstein said he saw a “real opportunity” to end the conflict after the Lebanese government and Hezbollah largely agreed to a US ceasefire proposal, although with some outstanding issues.
