“Trump says Lebanon and Israel agree to extend Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire by 3 weeks,” 4-23-26.

“Day 54 of Middle East conflict – Trump says no timeline,” CNN, 4-23-26.

I’m not convinced this article gets it right.  The IRGC was already on the ascent for 15 years plus.  Here there is simply no Leader and the next appointed leader is a figurehead (bad pun).  See “A New Era and New Leadership: The Generals Who Are Running Iran,” NYT, 4-23-26.

Another blow for Iran, but when will Hezbollah lose its weapons?  “Israel and Lebanon agree to extend ceasefire by 3 weeks, Trump says,” AP, 4-23-26.
