Donald Trump is criticizing Benjamin Netanyahu regarding today’s attack by Israel on Lebanon.
“The attack that took place this morning in Beirut should not have happened, especially on such an important day, as we are so close to a peace agreement with Iran,” said U.S. President, Donald Trump, via Truth Social. “We are very close to an agreement that will bring peace to the region, including Lebanon, and all sides must compromise,” he emphasized.

“The attack that took place this morning in Beirut should not have happened, especially on such an important day, as we are so close to a peace agreement with Iran.
Israel has the right to defend itself against threats, but the attack to which it responded was very small-scale and insignificant; no one was injured, harmed, or killed, and this should not disrupt this important process.
We are very close to an agreement that will bring peace to the region, including Lebanon, and all sides must back down. There must be no further attacks by Israel anywhere in Lebanon, but there must be no further attacks by any other side, including Hezbollah, against Israel.
This could be the beginning of a long and beautiful peace — let’s not ruin it! Thank you for your attention to this matter.”
