Israel’s prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu has expressed support for US President Donald Trump’s decision to suspend attacks on Iran for two weeks, while underlining that the ceasefire does not extend to Hezbollah Lebanon.
Netanyahu’s remarks mark Israel’s first response to the US-Iran ceasefire announcement, which is aimed at creating a temporary pause in hostilities and opening a window for negotiations. Israeli media, cited by AP, reported that the Prime Minister backed the US move but maintained key operational distinctions, particularly regarding ongoing regional theatres.
