Israel's security cabinet agreed to a ceasefire deal between Israel and Hezbollah brokered by the U.S., Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a taped video message Tuesday evening local time after meeting with his security cabinet.

The U.S.-brokered agreement would end more than a year of fighting, though Israel continued bombing major areas like Beirut just hours before the vote.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has laid out three objectives behind a potential ceasefire deal between Israel and Hezbollah. Netanyahu says he will take the proposal to his security cabinet for approval.
