U.S. President Donald Trump announced a 10-day pause in fighting between Israel and Lebanon set to begin Thursday at 5 p.m. ET, following what he described as “excellent” conversations with both countries’ leaders.

Earlier in the day, Lebanese President Joseph Aoun declined to speak with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, despite Trump’s earlier indication that direct talks between the two leaders would take place.

The situation remains tense, with the ceasefire pause viewed as a temporary step in broader efforts to reduce hostilities in the region.
