Israel’s ambassador to the United States said on Friday that his country would commit to an “immediate ceasefire” in Lebanon if Hezbollah respected it, hours after a US official said the two parties had agreed a new truce.
“Israel remains firmly committed to an immediate ceasefire,” Yechiel Leiter posted on X. “If Hezbollah honours the agreement and ceases its hostilities, they will be met with quiet,” he added.
