The Israeli military said it intercepted rocket fire that crossed into northern Israel from Lebanon today.

Hezbollah said the attack was in retaliation for Israel violating the 10-day ceasefire that took effect last week,

an extension to which President Trump announced earlier.

Now, earlier this week we brought you an exclusive interview with the senior Hezbollah leader who rejected Israel's demand to disarm.

Tonight, we're joined by Israel's ambassador to the UN, Danny Dannan.

Mr. Ambassador, welcome to the program.

Thank you for having me, Jeff.

So President Trump, as you know, a short time ago announced a three-week extension of the ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon, specifically Hezbollah.

As we sit here and speak, details are few. What more can you tell us?

First, we welcome the direct talks between Israel and Lebanon.

You know, we have the same goal. We all want to get rid of Hezbollah. We want to see

sovereign Lebanon controlling the territory of Lebanon. And as we speak, we see that Hezbollah

is trying to create chaos, attack Israeli communities in the northern part of Israel, and again,

try to ignite another cycle of violence.

We will continue the talks with the Lebanese.

We are grateful for the U.S. for their involvement.

But we have to acknowledge that Hezbollah should not be a part of this equation.

They shouldn't be in southern Lebanon.

They shouldn't be part of the Lebanese government.

They are the one who's throwing chaos in the region.

When the president says the U.S. will help Lebanon protect itself from Hezbollah,

what does that look like in practice beyond what's already being done?
