UK News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now! — Trump's Ceasefire: US-Iran Summit Looms. Machine-transcribed; use the interactive transcript above to jump the player to any line.
On April 16, President Trump just dropped a bombshell, announcing a 10-day ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon that kicked off at 10pm UK time. Last night, he called it his 10th war solved after talks with Lebanon's President Joseph Awan and Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, saying it's the start of real peace between them. This move ramps up pressure on Iran, too, where Trump claims they're close to a deal on nukes and uranium, which could crash oil prices and fix the wrecked global economy from their ongoing war. Israel had kept hitting Hezbollah despite pauses, but now everyone's pausing to talk. We actions hit hard in Jerusalem, with folks furious that Trump jumped ahead of their security cabinet meeting to approve it. Still, its historic U.S. ambassadors from both sides met in Washington, Monday, first time in 34 years, aiming to disarm the weakened Hezbollah. Sticking points linger, though, like whether Israel pulls troops from southern Lebanon
or lets Lebanon's army move in during the truce. No withdrawals planned yet, but a big U.S. Iran summit looks set in Islamabad, with both sides hungry for peace. Meanwhile, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth warned Iran to play smart, reminding them U.S. forces could flip the switch back to fighting any time. Momentum's building fast could be the break the world's been waiting for.
