Israel and Lebanon Agree to 10‑Day Ceasefire as Trump Announces Breakthrough

  Israel and Lebanon Reach 10‑Day Ceasefire Following Trump Announcement Israel and Lebanon have agreed to a 10‑day ceasefire set to begin at 5 p.m. EST, according to U.S. President Donald Trump, who said the truce followed “excellent conversations” with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Lebanese President Joseph Aoun.  The ceasefire comes after more than six weeks of intense fighting between Israel and Hezbollah, the Iran‑backed armed group operating in southern Lebanon. The conflict has resulted in over 2,000 deaths in Lebanon and displaced more than a million residents, while Israel has maintained a 10‑kilometre security zone in southern Lebanon.

U.S. Launches Strikes on Iranian Nuclear Sites Amid Escalating Israel-Iran Conflict



In a dramatic escalation of the ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran, the United States has conducted airstrikes on three major Iranian nuclear facilities—Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan—marking its most direct military involvement in the crisis to date.

President Donald Trump announced the strikes early Saturday, calling them a “very successful attack” and stating that the targeted sites were “completely and fully obliterated”. The operation involved a combination of bunker-buster bombs and Tomahawk missiles launched from U.S. stealth bombers and submarines.

The strikes come after more than a week of intense aerial combat between Israel and Iran, which began on June 13. While Israel had already inflicted significant damage on Iranian military and nuclear infrastructure, U.S. involvement was deemed necessary to target the heavily fortified Fordow facility, buried deep within a mountain.

Iran has condemned the U.S. action as a “dangerous war” and warned of “everlasting consequences”. The International Atomic Energy Agency confirmed the attacks but reported no immediate signs of radiation leakage.

As the world watches anxiously, the international community has called for restraint, fearing further escalation in an already volatile region. Whether this marks a turning point toward resolution or deeper conflict remains uncertain.
