Israel’s security cabinet approved a ceasefire agreement with Hezbollah on Tuesday night, the Israeli Prime Minister’s Office said in a statement.
Israel’s state-owned Kan TV News reported that the ceasefire was expected to take effect on Wednesday at 4 a.m. local time (0200 GMT) in Israel and Lebanon.
The security cabinet approved the ceasefire by a majority of ten votes to one, with far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir casting the sole dissenting vote.
