Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has publicly supported US President Donald Trump's decision to suspend attacks against Iran for two weeks, while explicitly stating that Lebanon is not part of this ceasefire agreement. Netanyahu emphasized that Israel backs US efforts to mitigate Iran's nuclear and terror threats to the region and the world. This announcement comes amid conflicting statements from Shehbaz Sharif, the Prime Minister of Pakistan, who asserted that the ceasefire applies to Lebanon as well. The ceasefire follows a series of escalations, including Hezbollah's rocket attacks on Israel after the killing of Iran's supreme leader, which resulted in significant casualties in Lebanon. The US and Iran reached the ceasefire agreement just before Trump's deadline, with Iran presenting a 10-point plan that includes demands such as the acceptance of its uranium enrichment and the lifting of sanctions. Negotiations are scheduled to begin in Islamabad, Pakistan, aimed at reaching a conclusive agreement by April 10.
