Trump says Israel, Lebanon ceasefire extended by three weeks

way2barak,  April 24: President Donald Trump announced Thursday that a temporary ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon has been extended by three weeks, even as a timeline for a full peace deal to end the Iran war has yet to be laid out.

“The United States is going to work with Lebanon in order to help it protect itself from Hezbollah,” the president wrote in a post on Truth Social. “The Ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon will be extended by THREE WEEKS.”

The White House hosted ambassador-level talks between Israel and Lebanon earlier Thursday, which the president, Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Mike Huckabee, ambassador to Israel and Michel Issa, ambassador to Lebanon, were involved in.
