Israeli news outlets report that the recently announced cessation of IDF fire in Lebanon came after 'immense pressure' from the United States on Israel's principal decision-makers. The development follows Prime Minister Netanyahu's earlier order to halt military operations in southern Lebanon, which was initially reported by Israeli Channel 12. The US pressure is seen as part of broader diplomatic efforts involving upcoming talks between the US, Qatar, Pakistan, and Iran. The ceasefire remains fragile, with previous violations and continued tensions in the region.
