“9 Wars Solved, This Is My 10th”: President Trump Announces Historic Israel-Lebanon Ceasefire

Peace on a Tightrope: 10-Day Ceasefire Takes Effect in Lebanon.

Trump started his claims again! Before he makes a claim can’t he at least examine his own statements?

Israel is not waging war with the state of Lebanon. Israel is in the war with Hezbollah. Hezbollah is not a government, it’s a designated terror outfit, Lebanese government has nothing to do with Israel-Hezbollah war.  Amazon Brand - Myx Women's Schiffli Embroidery Ethnic Dress | Fit and Flare | Knee Length (Available in Plus Sizes)

On April 16, 2026, President Donald Trump announced a 10-day ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon, calling it as a major diplomatic milestone in stabilizing the West Asia. The 10-day "official ceasefire" began at 5:00 PM EST on April 16. It is intended as a cooling-off period to facilitate more permanent peace negotiations.

 In his Truth Social post, Trump stated, "It has been my Honor to solve 9 Wars across the World, and this will be my 10th." This follows his earlier claims at Davos in January 2026, where he took credit for de-escalating eight conflicts, including a 2025 military stalemate between India and Pakistan.

Trump has invited Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Lebanese President Joseph Aoun to the White House for direct and result oriented talks. This would be the first high-voltage meeting of its kind since 1983. In either case, there is no rift between Netanyahu and Joseph Aoun.

Prime Minister Netanyahu stated that a permanent deal must include the permanent dismantling of Hezbollah, but Hezbollah has indicated that their acceptance depends on the complete withdrawal of Israeli troops from southern Lebanon. Once close ideological partners, Trump and Meloni now clash openly. Italy blocks US access to Sigonella

Israel will not withdraw its troop from Lebanon, hours after the ceasefire took effect at midnight local time, the Lebanese army witnessed irregular shelling by Israeli forces in southern villages, urging civilians to delay their return home.

This truce is relevant and can influence broader U.S.-Iran peace negotiations. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Vice President JD Vance are making efforts to extend this pause into a lasting regional settlement.
