Lebanon-Israel Ceasefire Extended by Three Weeks Following Trump-Mediated Talks

Washington D.C. The ceasefire between Lebanon and Israel has been extended for an additional three weeks through the active mediation of U.S. President Donald Trump. Trump announced the agreement to extend the truce following high-level talks with ambassadors from both nations at the White House Oval Office.

This dialogue, held just a day after an Israeli strike claimed the lives of five people, including a journalist, is being viewed as a critical step toward de-escalating tensions in West Asia. On Truth Social, Trump described the meeting as highly positive and pledged that the U.S. would assist Lebanon in protecting itself from Hezbollah.
