Israel supports the U.S.-Iran two-week ceasefire, "subject to Iran immediately opening the straits and stopping all attacks on the U.S., Israel and countries in the region," Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Office said Wednesday.

The ceasefire does not include Lebanon, the office said in a statement.
