Videos
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu agreed to a ten-day ceasefire with Lebanon, announced by American President Donald Trump. The ceasefire was to begin on April 17, 2026, at 21:00 GMT. Netanyahu agreed to the deal at Trump's request, but at the same time emphasized that Israel would maintain a ten-kilometer-wide security zone along the border in southern Lebanon. hnonline.sk ↗
The Israeli prime minister described the ceasefire as an opportunity to conclude a "historic peace agreement" with Lebanon. At the same time, he insisted that armed forces would remain in strategic positions for the duration of the ceasefire. Israeli security officials were briefed on the agreement during a meeting of the security cabinet, although some ministers reportedly learned of the ceasefire only from media reports first. Some of them requested a vote on the matter, which, however, did not take place. teraz.sk ↗
It remains unclear to what extent the Iran-backed Hezbollah movement, which represents a key element of the conflict in the region, is involved in the agreement. aktuality.sk ↗
In an earlier development, the Israeli prime minister officially appointed Major General Roman Gofman as the new head of Israel's intelligence service, Mossad, on Sunday. Gofman will take office on June 2 and will replace the current head of the intelligence service. On Monday, on the occasion of Holocaust and Heroism Remembrance Day, Netanyahu declared that Israel, together with the United States, had dealt Iran the strongest blow in the history of the Iranian regime, comparing Iranian nuclear facilities to Nazi extermination camps. ta3.com ↗
