After Trump-Netanyahu call, Israel-Iran truce appears to hold

Israel will refrain from carrying out further strikes in Iran despite Tehran’s violation of the ceasefire deal, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said following a phone call with U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday. During the conversation, Trump “conveyed his deep appreciation for Israel, which he said had accomplished all of the war’s objectives,” the Prime Minister’s Office in Jerusalem stated, adding that Trump had “also expressed confidence in the stability of the ceasefire.”
