BEIRUT, LEBANON - APRIL 16: The Lebanese capital is seen from a viewpoint after U.S. President Donald Trump announced a ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon that would commence at midnight local time on April 16, 2026 in Beirut, Lebanon. The statement made no mention of Hezbollah, the militant group that has been the purported target of Israel's war here, but a senior lawmaker for the group said it had been briefed on a short-term ceasefire. Israel's campaign, which has involved intensive bombing across Lebanon and an invasion of southern parts of the country, had continued apace despite the US-Iran ceasefire agreed to on April 8.
