Israeli military launches biggest wave of strikes on Lebanon since war began The Israel Defence Forces has said it has conducted the largest wave of strikes on Hezbollah in Lebanon since the war began - hours after the US and Iran agreed to a two-week ceasefire.More than 100 Hezbollah targets were hit by Israeli forces in the capital Beirut and areas of southern Lebanon within a 10-minute spell earlier today, the IDF said."This is the largest strike carried out against Hezbollah infrastructure since the start of Operation Roaring Lion," it said.The strike, which included Hezbollah headquarters among its targets, had been planned "meticulously over weeks", the IDF said.It added most of the targets that were struck were located "within the heart of the civilian population", but says "steps were taken to mitigate harm".The IDF had previously issued evacuation orders for parts of Beirut and another Lebanese city, Tyre.Benjamin Netanyahu has said the ceasefire agreement - announced by Donald Trump last night - did not include Israel's fight against Hezbollah. No enrichment of uranium in Iran, Trump says - as he talks of extended 15-point plan Donald Trump has rejected one of Iran's key points for the ceasefire agreement.Posting on Truth Social, Trump says the US will "work closely" with Iran but "There will be no enrichment of Uranium".One of the features of the 10-point peace plan previously reported by Iranian state media was the country's right to enrich.The US president does agree with some of the other points, however, saying Washington will be "talking Tariff and Sanctions relief" with Tehran.In a variation to what's been reported already, Trump says many of the "15" points have already been agreed to.Minutes later, Trump outlines a punishment from the US for supplying Iran with military weapons in a follow-up post - a 50% tariff on all goods, "effective immediately".Read the posts in full...

Iran War Live Updates: U.S., Iran and Israel Agree to Cease-Fire
PinnedHere’s the latest.The United States and Iran reached an 11th-hour cease-fire deal on Tuesday evening, hours after President Trump threatened to start wiping out Iran’s “whole civilization” if it did not allow commercial shipping to pass safely through the Strait of Hormuz.Mr. Trump announced the agreement in a post on social media hours after Pakistan, a mediator in the dispute, urged him to stand down from the 8 p.m. Eastern time deadline he had set for Iran to accede to his demands. Pakistan proposed that each side observe a two-week cease-fire, and that during that time Iran allow oil, gas and other vessels to proceed unmolested through the economically vital waterway.Shortly after the cease-fire announcement, a U.S. official said American military strikes against Iran had stopped. Iran’s foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, said in a statement that the Iranians would “cease their defensive operation,” and that “for a period of two weeks, safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz will be possible” if coordinated with Iran’s military.Israel supports President Trump’s decision to stop attacking Iran for two weeks subject to the immediate reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and the cessation of Iran attacks against the United States, Israel and other countries in the region, the office of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a statement.But the statement said the cease-fire did not include Lebanon, contradicting an earlier statement from Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif of Pakistan.The cease-fire buys both sides time to try to reach a longer-term end to the war, which began at the end of February with the United States and Israel subjecting Iran to a withering military assault.Iran accepted Pakistan’s cease-fire proposal after frantic diplomatic efforts by Pakistan and last-minute intervention by China, a key ally, according to three Iranian officials. Iran’s national security council officially confirmed the agreement, casting it as a victory in which the United States accepted Iran’s terms.The cease-fire announcement sent Brent crude, the international benchmark for oil prices, down to $93 a barrel. Asian stocks opened higher on Wednesday morning, with Japan’s Nikkei 225 gaining 4 percent and South Korea’s Kospi up more than 5 percent. Futures on the S&P 500 stock index, which give investors the chance to bet on the market before exchanges open on Wednesday, rose over 2 percent.Earlier, as the day wore on, it was not clear whether an off-ramp would em...
