The White House: "The cease-fire announcement was coordinated with Israel"

The White House confirmed that the calls for a ceasefire with Hezbollah were made "in coordination" with Israel. The White House also stated that "We do not believe that an all-out war is the solution to the situation. Officials from Israel and the United States are discussing the situation in Lebanon in New York." Netanyahu's office said in the name of a "political official": "As we said - Israel was informed about the American proposal, but clearly not She gave her consent to that."

Recall that earlier today it was reported that the US and France are working to bring about a ceasefire with Hezbollah. At the same time, Prime Minister Netanyahu landed in the US in the afternoon ahead of his speech at the UN General Assembly on Friday at noon. Netanyahu was accompanied by the families of abductees who flew with him on the "Kenaf Zion" plane ".

After his landing, Netanyahu said that "our policy is clear - we continue to hit Hezbollah with all our might. We will not stop until we achieve all our goals, first of all the safe return of the residents of the north to their homes. This is the policy and no one will make a mistake about it." We will recall that Minister Ben Gabir threatened to resign. After the meeting of the Otzma Yehudit faction, Ben Gabir said that if a ceasefire was signed, his party would no longer be committed to coalition discipline and would even resign from the government in the event of a permanent ceasefire. "If a temporary cease-fire is signed with Hezbollah, the Otzma Yehudit faction removes any coalition commitment - with all that implies: no to the votes, no to the government and cabinet meetings, and no to any coalition activity."

"If the temporary cease-fire becomes permanent as part of some "outline", which means the fate of the residents of the north will be sealed at the mercy of Hezbollah - all ministers and members of the Knesset from Otzma Yehudit will resign from the government and the coalition." Ben Gvir added.
