It’s 9am in Beirut and Jerusalem, 9.30am in Tehran and 2am in Washington DC.

The agreement was announced earlier by Donald Trump, who said he had spoken with Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Lebanese president Joseph Aoun, and invited both leaders “for meaningful talks” at the White House. Both leaders welcomed the agreement. Israel and Hezbollah both maintained their right to defend themselves if the truce is broken – here’s our full report .
