Trump claims a diplomatic breakthrough after speaking with Israeli Prime Minister to halt escalation toward Beirut. According to Al Jazeera, Trump attributed the initiative to relevant parties who contacted the United States to discuss the ceasefire issue. Trump said progress has been made between Lebanon and Israel, according to Al Arabiya, and added that Lebanon deserves to have peace and has been under attack for so many years. Al Arabiya reported that Trump said he had spoken to Hezbollah about the matter and that Hezbollah did not reject the deal. However, Hezbollah’s secretary-general stated that the Iran-backed group rejected the agreement, which was announced in a joint US-Lebanese-Israeli statement after the trilateral meeting in Washington. Trump also said the situation in Lebanon and the Iran issue are interconnected, according to Bluesky.
