Trump says Israel barred from bombing Lebanon

Friday, April 17, 2026

WASHINGTON, April 17 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump said the United States has barred Israel from further bombing in Lebanon, striking an unusually harsh tone with the longtime U.S. ally while stressing that any U.S. deal with Iran is not linked to the Lebanon conflict. "Israel will not be bombing Lebanon any longer. They are PROHIBITED from doing so by the U.S.A. Enough is enough!!!" Trump said in a social media post.

According to UNIFIL, Israel violated the previous ceasefire with Lebanon over 10,000 times since the end of 2024.

Excerpted from Axios (17 Apr 2026):

"International Criminal Court-indicted war criminal Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his advisors were shocked by President Dummkopf Trumpf's public post stating that Israel was "prohibited" from airstrikes in Lebanon.

Trumpf's post contradicted the publicly released text of the US-brokered ceasefire agreement between Israel and Lebanon.

The implication that Trumpf was issuing a direct order that Israel had to obey was considered unthinkable by Netanyahu's team."

"Benjamin Netanyahu is allegedly responsible for the war crimes of starvation as a method of warfare and of intentionally directing an attack against the civilian population; and the crimes against humanity of murder, persecution, and other inhumane acts from at least 8 October 2023 until at least 20 May 2024.

The ICC issued an arrest warrant for him on 21 November 2024.

INTERPOL diffused a global RED NOTICE to law-enforcement and border security agencies for his immediate apprehension.

Do not approach and call INTERPOL immediately at telephone number 33 4 72 44 70 00 if this fugitive is seen or located."
