A senior American official told Reuters this afternoon (Friday) that Israel and Hezbollah had agreed to a ceasefire starting at 4:00 PM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The new agreement was reached through mediation by the US and Qatar after talks with Israel and Iran, an attempt to prevent the collapse of the agreement with Iran.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A senior Israeli official said that Israel is currently in a ceasefire. "For us, this is not a time for war." He said, "IDF forces remain in southern Lebanon and we have the freedom to act against emerging threats and threats to our forces and territory.".<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Commentator Amit Segal quoted a senior Israeli official: "There is no renewal in the ceasefire. It allows the IDF to continue destroying infrastructure and acting against emerging threats. The Israeli ambassador in Washington made this clear last night. Hezbollah attacked and kidnapped and ran to ask for the renewal of the ceasefire.".<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Earlier, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said: "My directive is clear - Israel will not tolerate attacks on our soldiers or our territory, and it will exact a very heavy price from Hezbollah for these attacks. The IDF will act to thwart any threat to our forces and territory. As I made clear unequivocally, including yesterday: Israel will remain in the security zone in southern Lebanon for as long as necessary to protect the northern communities.".<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to a report in Israel Hayom, former Minister Ron Dermer delivered a stern warning to Israel's political and security leadership in the past 24 hours not to attack the American administration, so as not to aggravate the state of relations. According to the report, the message was particularly sharp, and Dermer used language that was less diplomatic than usual for him, to make it clear to the Israeli leadership that the situation must not be further aggravated and that this is a real emergency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At the same time, the New York Post reported that the Revolutionary Guards had informed ships in the Strait of Hormuz that it was closed "until Israel withdraws from Lebanon." According to the report, Iran justifies the closure of the strait by Israel's refusal to leave Lebanon and the continued presence of American forces in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a statement read on naval radio channels, the Revolutionary Guards said the United States was violating the memorandum of understanding between the two countries, which they said contained a \"main condition\" of an Israeli withdrawal from Lebanon. \"All ships are requested, for their safety and security, not to approach the Strait of Hormuz,\" the statement said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
US President Donald Trump wrote today on his social media account Truth: "The war has weakened Iran! It no longer has an air force, navy, anti-aircraft equipment, radar or almost nothing else. And yet, the Democrats say Iran is in better shape now than it was four months ago. Can you imagine how they will get out of this? How stupid can people be?"\"<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u05d0\u05e8\u05d4\"\u05d1 \u05d5\u05e7\u05d8\u05d0\u05e8 \u05d2\u05d9\u05d1\u05e9\u05d5 \u05d0\u05ea \u05d4\u05e4\u05e1\u05e7\u05ea \u05d4\u05d0\u05e9 \u05d1\u05e1\u05d9\u05d5\u05e2 \u05d0\u05d9\u05e8\u05d0\u05df \u2022 \u05dc\u05e4\u05d9 \u05d1\u05db\u05d9\u05e8 \u05d0\u05de\u05e8\u05d9\u05e7\u05e0\u05d9 \u05e9\u05e9\u05d5\u05d7\u05d7 \u05e2\u05dd \u05e8\u05d5\u05d9\u05d8\u05e8\u05e1, \u05d4\u05e4\u05e1\u05e7\u05ea \u05d4\u05d0\u05e9 \u05d4\u05d7\u05dc\u05d4 \u05d1\u05e9\u05e2\u05d4 16:00 \u05e9\u05e2\u05d5\u05df \u05d9\u05e9\u05e8\u05d0\u05dc \u2022 \u05d1\u05db\u05d9\u05e8 \u05d9\u05e9\u05e8\u05d0\u05dc\u05d9: \"\u05db\u05d5\u05d7\u05d5\u05ea \u05e6\u05d4\u05f4\u05dc \u05e0\u05e9\u05d0\u05e8\u05d9\u05dd \u05d1\u05d3\u05e8\u05d5\u05dd \u05dc\u05d1\u05e0\u05d5\u05df \u05d5\u05d9\u05e9 \u05dc\u05e0\u05d5 \u05d0\u05ea \u05d4\u05d7\u05d5\u05e4\u05e9 \u05dc\u05e4\u05e2\u05d5\u05dc \u05e0\u05d2\u05d3 \u05d0\u05d9\u05d5\u05de\u05d9\u05dd \u05de\u05ea\u05d4\u05d5\u05d5\u05d9\u05dd \u05d5\u05d0\u05d9\u05d5\u05de\u05d9\u05dd \u05e2\u05dc \u05db\u05d5\u05d7\u05d5\u05ea\u05d9\u05e0\u05d5 \u05d5\u05e9\u05d8\u05d7\u05e0\u05d5\"","protected":false},"author":47,"featured_media":1053649,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[24],"tags":[6052,1256,1288],"class_list":["post-1055771","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-24","tag-6052","tag-1256","tag-1288"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
