A 10-day cease-fire went into effect at midnight Thursday in Lebanon.
The truce was brokered by the U.S. government and announced by President Trump.
“It’s very exciting because it’s 48 years.
We’re going to be meeting with Bibi Netanyahu, as you know, and the president of Lebanon.
And I had a great talk with both of them today.
They’re going to be having a cease-fire.
And that will include Hezbollah.”
