黎巴嫩贝鲁特消息：周五黎巴嫩开始了为期10天的休战，这可能会暂停以色列与真主党武装组织之间的战斗，并有助于延长伊朗、美国和以色列之间因数周毁灭性战争而达成的停火协议。
特朗普总统宣布该协议为以色列与黎巴嫩之间的停火协议。然而，以色列的作战对象并非黎巴嫩国家本身，而是该国内部受伊朗支持的真主党武装分子，后者并未正式成为协议的一部分。停火开始后，贝鲁特全城响起了庆祝的枪声。流离失所的家庭开始向黎巴嫩南部和贝鲁特南郊移动，尽管官员警告在停火是否稳固尚不明确前不要尝试返回家园。
此前，以色列总理内塔尼亚胡表示，他同意停火是为了“推进”与黎巴嫩的和平努力，但他表示以色列军队不会撤出。以军在向黎巴嫩南部推进时与真主党发生了激烈战斗，以建立官员所称的“安全区”。内塔尼亚胡在视频讲话中表示，该区域将深入黎巴嫩10公里（6英里）。他称：“我们就在那里，而且我们不会离开。”
真主党则表示，领土上的“以色列占领”赋予了黎巴嫩人民抵抗的权利，这一立场可能会使停火变得复杂。美国国务院表示，根据双方达成的协议，以色列保留在任何时候针对计划中、即时或正在进行的攻击进行自卫的权利。
BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) — A 10-day truce began in Lebanon on Friday that could pause fighting between Israel and the Hezbollah militant group and boost attempts to extend the ceasefire between Iran, the United States and Israel after weeks of devastating war.U.S. President Donald Trump announced the agreement as a ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon. However, Israel has not been fighting with Lebanon itself, but rather with the Iranian-backed Hezbollah militants inside the country, who were not formally part of the agreement.Barrages of gunshots rang out across Beirut as residents fired into the air just after midnight to celebrate the beginning of the truce.Displaced families began moving toward southern Lebanon and Beirut’s southern suburbs, despite warnings by officials not to attempt to return to their homes until it became clear whether the ceasefire would hold.Earlier, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he agreed to the ceasefire “to advance” peace efforts with Lebanon, but said Israeli troops would not withdraw.Workers search amongst the rubble of a destroyed building that was hit a week ago in an Israeli airstrike in central Beirut, Lebanon, Thursday, April 16, 2026.

This time, Hezbollah said it would respond to any strikes by Israel.Iran's Parliamentary Speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf, right, meets Pakistan's Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir in Tehran, Iran, on April 16, 2026.Hamed Malekpour/ICANA via APIt’s unclear when the 1 million people displaced by the war will be able to safely return.Hezbollah kept firing rockets at northern Israeli towns and communities right up to the start of the ceasefire.
