Hezbollah, Druze in Lebanon agree to 'new start'

None

Druze leader in southern Lebanon, Walid Jumblatt, met with senior Hezbollah figures for a meeting of reconciliation, during which the two sides agreed to "turn a new page" in their relations.

 

The agreement came almost two years after conflict broke out between them on 7 May 2008. Jumblatt said that the meeting marked a real turning point. (Roee Nahmias)
