The U.S. embassy in Lebanon reported that Hezbollah accepted a U.S. proposal for a mutual cessation of attacks after Israel threatened additional strikes on southern Beirut ahead of a fourth round of negotiations. President Trump said he had convinced Israel and Hezbollah to de-escalate.

1. I had a very productive conversation, and there will be no soldiers arriving in Beirut, and any soldier who was on the way has already turned back.
2. If they don't want to talk, that's okay with me. I think it's fine. I don't particularly want to talk either. I think we've been talking too much, if you want to know the truth. I think going silent would be very good, and that could be for a long time.
3. It's an appropriate thing to say, because they're better negotiators than they are fighters.
4. Iran really wants to make a deal, and it will be a good one for the U.S.A. and those that are with us.
5. Talks are continuing, at a rapid pace, with the Islamic Republic of Iran.
6. Just sit back and relax, it will all work out well in the end – It always does!
7. They agreed that all shooting will stop — That Israel will not attack them, and they will not attack Israel.
8. I had a very productive call with Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu, of Israel, and there will be no Troops going to Beirut, and any Troops that are on their way, have already been turned back.
Abbas Araqchi
Iranian Foreign Ministry
1. Until a conclusion is reached... everything that is being said now is speculation.
2. The ceasefire between Iran and the US is unequivocally a ceasefire on all fronts, including in Lebanon. Its violation on one front is a violation of the ceasefire on all fronts. The US and Israel are responsible for the consequences of any violation.
Esmaeil Baqaeil
Iranian Foreign Ministry
1. Negotiations have started amid severe suspicion and mistrust, and the exchange of messages is taking place in this atmosphere.
2. We insist that a ceasefire in Lebanon is an essential condition for any deal aimed at ending the war.
3. No negotiations have taken place on the details of the nuclear file. At this stage, our priority is ending the war.
4. We know when it is necessary to act on nuclear matters.
Tasnim News Agency
1. The immediate cessation of the Zionist regime's aggressive and brutal army operations in Gaza and Lebanon and the necessity of the regime's complete withdrawal from the occupied areas in Lebanon have been emphasised by Iranian officials and negotiators, and there will be no talks until Iran and the resistance's views on this matter are met.
Iranian Revolutionary Guards
1. Iran considers crossing the red lines in Lebanon and Gaza to mean direct war.
Jean-Noel Barrot
1. Nothing can justify the continuation of Israeli military operations in Lebanon and an ever-deeper occupation of Lebanese territory.
US Embassy
1. Under the proposed arrangement, Israeli strikes on Dahiyeh would cease in exchange for Hezbollah refraining from launching attacks against Israel, with the ceasefire framework to be expanded to encompass all Lebanese territory.
2. The Lebanese authorities received confirmation of Hezbollah's acceptance of the US proposal providing for a mutual cessation of attacks.
Chris Coons
Democratic Party
1. We're going to need a tough deal to actually address this new capability that Iran has demonstrated in this war.
2. While we can use our technological superiority to bomb big factories in Iran, we're not going to be able to stop them from having the power to use their mines to close the Strait of Hormuz and their drones to attack us and our allies.
