NEW: Trump Brokers Deal: ‘All Shooting Will Stop’

President Donald Trump said Monday he secured an agreement to halt an Israeli troop move toward Beirut after speaking with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, while also relaying that Hezbollah signaled it would stop firing.

Trump announced the development in a Truth Social post, saying the call with Netanyahu produced an immediate change in Israel’s posture toward the Lebanese capital.

“I had a very productive call with Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu, of Israel, and there will be no Troops going to Beirut, and any Troops that are on their way, have already been turned back,” Trump said in a post on Truth Social.

Trump also said Hezbollah conveyed a commitment to end hostilities, describing the communication as being carried out through intermediaries.

“Likewise, through highly placed Representatives, I had a very good call with Hezbollah, and they agreed that all shooting will stop.”

The remarks came as reports circulated that Israel had been preparing strikes tied to Beirut, and as Washington sought to cool a confrontation that has threatened to widen beyond border skirmishes.

After Trump’s statement, an Israeli source told the Israeli news site Ynet that Israel postponed planned strikes on Beirut at the request of the United States. The source said the U.S. is advancing a ceasefire initiative and asked Israel to wait.

An Israeli official told Ynet earlier Monday that Israel had coordinated the planned attack with the Americans. The outlet noted the possibility that the purpose of instructing the attack was to pressure Hezbollah into agreeing to a ceasefire.

Trump’s post framed the move as immediate, saying troops already in motion had been ordered back. It was not immediately clear how the halt would be implemented on the ground or what terms, if any, were attached beyond the pledge that “all shooting will stop.”

The White House did not release additional details about the contacts described in Trump’s post, including which representatives were involved, what enforcement mechanisms were discussed, or how long a halt in fighting would last.

Still, Donald Trump’s announcement signaled a push for de-escalation amid fears that a strike on Beirut, or a new surge of rocket and drone attacks, could trigger a broader regional crisis and draw in outside powers.

Officials in the region have warned in recent weeks that miscalculation around Lebanon could rapidly spiral, especially if major population centers are hit or if troop movements are interpreted as preparations for a larger offensive.

For now, Trump is betting the phone calls bought time. He cast the development as a direct result of his talks with Netanyahu and contacts with Hezbollah, and he presented the outcome in blunt terms: no troops into Beirut, and no more shooting.
