U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee welcomed President Donald Trump's announcement of a ceasefire and wrote on his X account: "It's 3:00 AM in Israel and I woke up to a phone call instead of a ballistic missile, as President Trump announced wonderful news to the world about a ceasefire that will soon take effect!" Huckabee added: "12 days felt like 12 months! The President didn't just 'pray for the peace of Jerusalem,' he achieved it!"
