BEIRUT — Israel has agreed to a 10-day ceasefire in Lebanon, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Thursday, after an announcement of the pause by President Donald Trump.
Hezbollah, the Lebanese group fighting Israel, did not say whether it would recognize the agreement. “A ceasefire must include a comprehensive halt to attacks across all Lebanese territory, with no freedom of movement for Israeli forces, and a return to the situation prior to March 2,” when the current round of conflict between Israel and Hezbollah began, the group said in a statement.
