What Happened
A two-week ceasefire between the US and Iran is wavering after Israel intensified bombing in Lebanon on Wednesday, killing at least 250 people. Iran has reportedly closed the Strait of Hormuz in response. The US and Israel deny Lebanon was part of the ceasefire agreement. Netanyahu says Israel will continue striking Hezbollah despite the ceasefire. Over one million people in Lebanon have been displaced, with more than 1,700 killed. Experts argue only Trump can compel Israel to alter course.
