The US and French embassies in Lebanon, along with UNIFIL, issued a joint statement regarding "coordination to support Security Council Resolution 1701."

"The United States, France, UNIFIL, LAF, and IDF met on December 9 in Naqoura to coordinate their support for the cessation of hostilities that went into effect on November 27," the statement read.

It also noted that this mechanism will meet regularly and closely coordinate its work to make progress in implementing the ceasefire agreement and Resolution 1701.

The Israeli Channel 12 reported that "the first meeting, held today in southern Lebanon, included representatives from the Israeli army, the Lebanese Army, UNIFIL, the United States, and France, to discuss implementing the ceasefire."

UN Resolution 1701, adopted by the United Nations Security Council on August 11, 2006, aimed to resolve the war between "Israel" and Hezbollah. The resolution called for an immediate ceasefire between the two sides and outlined a framework for lasting peace in the region.
