Ambassador to the US Yechiel Leiter says Israel “remains firmly committed to an immediate ceasefire” with Hezbollah, after a new truce was declared this afternoon.

“At 11:30 this morning, Israel halted all offensive operations; Hezbollah and Iranian claims to the contrary are bold lies,” Leiter writes on X. “If Hezbollah honors the agreement and ceases its hostilities, they will be met with quiet.”
