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.

1. Iran considers crossing the red lines in Lebanon and Gaza to mean direct war.
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.
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.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Israeli Government
1. This position of ours remain unchanged. Concurrently, the IDF will continue to operate as planned in southern Lebanon.
2. I spoke this evening with President Trump and told him that if Hezbollah does not stop firing at our cities and citizens – Israel will strike terrorist targets in Beirut.
Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf
Iranian National Security Council
1. The soldiers of the diplomatic battlefield have no trust in the words and promises of the enemy. What matters to us is tangible achievements that we must obtain, in exchange for which we will fulfil our commitments.
2. Every choice has a price, and the bill comes due. It will all fall into place.
3. The naval blockade and escalation of war crimes in Lebanon by the genocidal Zionist regime are clear evidence of US noncompliance with the ceasefire.
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.
