Trump claims Hezbollah didn't reject deal, asked US to stop war

U.S. President Donald Trump told journalists in a press conference that he thinks "progress is made" in the Lebanese-Israeli conflict.

"It would be really nice if Lebanon could have some peace," Trump said. "Lebanon has been under attack for so many years and always like an underdog, and it would be really nice if it could end," he added.

Trump said Hezbollah "didn't reject" the U.S.-brokered peace plan and that "they called us and said: how about stopping the war."
