A major diplomatic development emerged Thursday as Israel and Lebanon agreed to a 10-day ceasefire following high-level discussions in Washington, according to President Donald Trump. The announcement signals a possible cooling of tensions between the two nations after a period of escalating regional instability.
The temporary ceasefire is scheduled to begin at 5 p.m. ET, with Trump revealing the agreement in a post on Truth Social shortly after the talks concluded. The timing underscores what the administration is framing as a rapid diplomatic breakthrough amid a volatile international environment.
