Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has denied reports of an imminent ceasefire with Hezbollah in Lebanon, stating that his country's strikes will continue "with full force". Netanyahu has also rejected a proposed 21-day ceasefire, with Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz specifically rejecting the proposal, stating "there will be no ceasefire in the north". Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has also rejected the ceasefire proposal, stating that it would give Hezbollah time to "reorganise".
