The ceasefire relies on Hezbollah ceasing their attacks across the region

Israel and Lebanon have agreed a renewed ceasefire deal.

The ceasefire relies on Hezbollah ceasing their attacks across the region.

Iranian leaders say they won't agree to end the conflict with the US and Israel unless a ceasefire also covers Lebanon.

The latest agreement was announced by the US overnight, and comes after Donald Trump's heated telephone exchange with Benjamin Netanyahu earlier this week in which the US President reportedly told him he'd be in jail if it wasn't for him.

Meanwhile, Donald Trump says the Strait of Hormuz will "immediately" reopen once the memorandum of understanding between the US and Iran is signed.

He says negotiators are trying to separate the issue of the vital shipping lane and the hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon.

Iran insists any peace agreement reached with America must include Beirut.
