Israel announced the release of five Lebanese civilians held in areas of southern Lebanon as part of ongoing US-brokered negotiations, tied to efforts to locate and repatriate the remains of Jewish community leaders abducted and killed in the mid-1980s. Lebanon confirmed the return of a detainee via the ICRC and pledged to continue pursuing further releases, with the ICRC noting a humanitarian operation and both sides citing ongoing talks and ground operations in Rome and elsewhere.

Overview

The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC; ) is a humanitarian organization based in Geneva, Switzerland, and is a three-time Nobel Prize Laureate. State parties (signatories) to the Geneva Convention of 1949 and its Additional Protocols of 1977 (Protocol I, Protocol II) and 2005 have given the ICRC a mandate to protect victims of international and internal armed conflicts. Such victims include war wounded persons, prisoners, refugees, civilians, and other non-combatants. The ICRC is part of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, along with the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) and 191 National Societies. It is the oldest and most honoured organization within the movement and one of the most widely recognized organizations in the world, having won three Nobel Peace Prizes (in 1917, 1944, and 1963).
