Trump Announces Three-Week Extension of Israel-Lebanon Ceasefire. Donald Trump says a fragile ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon will be extended by three weeks following fresh diplomatic talks in Washington. The truce, originally set to expire soon, aims to halt weeks of fighting between Israel and the Iran-backed group Hezbollah. Trump described the latest negotiations as productive and signaled continued U.S. involvement to support Lebanon’s stability. Both Benjamin Netanyahu and Joseph Aoun are expected to visit the White House in the coming weeks, highlighting ongoing efforts to push toward a broader resolution. Despite the extension, tensions remain high. Both sides have accused each other of violating the ceasefire, with recent rocket fire and airstrikes underscoring how unstable the situation remains. The conflict, which escalated earlier this year amid wider regional tensions involving Iran, has caused significant casualties and displaced over a million people in Lebanon. While the ceasefire offers a temporary pause, major sticking points—especially the future of Hezbollah’s weapons—remain unresolved, leaving long-term peace uncertain.
