 Israel and Lebanon agree to extend US-brokered ceasefire by 45 days, State Department says Israel and Lebanon have agreed to extend a U.S.-brokered ceasefire by 45 days, according to U.S. officials, in an effort to allow further progress in ongoing negotiations aimed at reducing hostilities along their shared border. A State Department spokesperson said the April 16 cessation of hostilities would be extended by an additional 45 days following what officials described as “highly productive” talks held in Washington on Thursday and Friday.

 This is beyond the Oscar - John Travolta fights back tears after surprise Cannes honour


John Travolta arrived at the Cannes Film Festival expecting to celebrate the premiere of his latest project, but the evening turned into a deeply emotional career moment he never saw coming.


During an appearance at the Debussy Theater on May 15, festival director Thierry Frémaux surprised the veteran actor with an honorary Palme d’Or, praising him as one of cinema’s greatest performers.


Clearly overwhelmed by the moment, Travolta admitted he had no idea the honour was waiting for him. 


Speaking emotionally onstage, the actor described the recognition as something far beyond what he expected from the evening.


The 72-year-old actor attended the festival to present Propeller One-Way Night Coach, a film adaptation of the children’s book he wrote in 1997. 


The story follows a young aviation-loving boy named Jeff who travels across the country with his mother on a journey to Hollywood.


The project carries personal meaning for Travolta, as the original book was created in honour of his late son, Jett Travolta.


While reflecting on the film’s journey to Cannes, Travolta revealed that even getting accepted into the festival had already moved him emotionally months earlier. 


He explained that when Thierry Frémaux informed him the movie would be included in the lineup, he became overwhelmed with emotion.


Earlier in the evening, Travolta walked the red carpet with several members of the cast, including his daughter Ella Bleu Travolta, alongside actors Clark Shotwell, Kelly Eviston-Quinnett and Olga Hoffmann.


During his speech, Travolta spoke warmly about the people closest to him, describing the film as a reflection of his personal life and artistic journey. 


He credited his family and loved ones as the driving force behind both the movie and his decades-long career in entertainment.
