Netanyahu Tells Macron He Opposes Ceasefire Deal in Lebanon
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday said he was opposed to agreeing to a "unilateral ceasefire" in Lebanon during a call with French President Emmanuel Macron, according to a statement released by his office.

Netanyahu's right to reject a ceasefire. Hezbollah poses an ongoing and serious threat to Israel's security, and pausing now would just give them time to regroup and rearm. We've seen this play out before—any ceasefire without addressing the root cause just leads to more violence later. Israel has every right to defend itself and ensure long-term safety for its citizens.
