A ceasefire in Lebanon between Israel and the Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah appeared to be holding several hours after it began.

Summary

President Biden announced a U.S.-brokered ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah, effective Wednesday, ending over a year of deadly conflict that killed nearly 3,800 in Lebanon and displaced over 1.2 million.

The deal requires Hezbollah to pull forces 20 miles from Israel’s border, Israeli troop withdrawals within 60 days, and joint patrols by Lebanese forces and UN peacekeepers.

Biden emphasized Israel’s right to self-defense if terms are violated.

France supported implementation efforts, while Iran and Trump’s team were briefed.

Fighting between Israel and Hamas in Gaza remains unresolved.

    Oh groaaan. Don’t try to bring antisemitic conspiracy theories into this. Don’t try to drag regular Jewish people down into the Zionist death cult.

      Good to know you have some boundaries. But Israelis, so just some Jews, are really trying to take over the whole world? You can see how that could come off as kooky, right?
