Iran has conditioned any ceasefire deal with the U.S.

must include a truce in Lebanon.

President Trump said he spoke to representatives of the Iran-backed Hezbollah who agreed to stop shooting at Israeli soldiers, and he said Israel had agreed to do the same.

The Lebanese embassy in Washington further clarified Hezbollah had agreed to a U.S.

proposal for the mutual cessation of attacks.

and the embassy said under this agreement, Israel wouldn't strike the capital Beirut, although attacks continue elsewhere, and Hezbollah wouldn't strike Israel.

Talks between Israeli and Lebanese officials are set to resume this week in Washington.
