Lebanon and Israel agree to extend ceasefire for 45 days
Lebanon welcomed a 45-day extension of the ceasefire with Israel following two days of negotiations in Washington, even as Israeli attacks continued across Lebanon, killing at least 11 people on Wednesday. In a statement shared by the Lebanese presidency, Beirut said the renewed truce could ease pressure on civilians and help support stability, while calling for an independent monitoring mechanism and firm guarantees from the United States.
