US President Donald Trump said a ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon has been extended by three weeks following fresh talks between the two countries’ envoys in Washington.
Announcing the extension on Truth Social, Trump said the meeting “went very well,” adding that the United States would work with Lebanon “to help it protect itself from Hezbollah.”
Speaking in the Oval Office, Trump said Lebanese President Joseph Aoun and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu would visit the White House “in the coming weeks.”
