There's fears Israel and Hezbollah could be the sticking point for this week's US Iran peace agreement. 

Both sides have agreed a deal, to be formally signed in Switzerland on Friday.

The text is yet to be released, but it's understood the Strait of Hormuz will reopen and 60 days of nuclear negotiations will commence. 

US journalist and analyst Gordon Robison says it supposedly includes Lebanon.

"But the Israelis are not a signatory to the agreement, so the biggest long-term danger to this is either the Israelis or Hezbollah basically blow the agreement up."
