WASHINGTON, April 8 (Reuters) – Lebanon is not part of the ceasefire agreement the U.S. has with Iran “because of Hezbollah” but will “get taken care of,” U.S. President Donald Trump told PBS News in an interview on Wednesday a day after his ceasefire agreement with Iran.
Asked if he was okay with Israel’s continued strikes, Trump said “That’s a separate skirmish,” PBS “News Hour” program’s Liz Landers said in a post on X following the interview.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt earlier said that Lebanon was not part of the deal, Axios reported.
