U.S. President Donald Trump took off to Israel on Monday after boarding the plane, answering reporters’ questions about the Israeli ceasefire, saying three times that “the war is over.”
Trump’s departure to the Middle East on Monday, according to an airline interview recording released by the White House official account, showed that an accompanying reporter asked Trump that Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu did not say the war has ended, and whether Trump believes the war between the Palestinians has ended.

In this regard, Trump showed a little impatient. He emphasized to reporters: "The war is over, the war is over, the war is over, okay? Do you understand?" When a British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) reporter asked Trump whether he believed the current ceasefire was sustainable, Trump said: "Considering various reasons, I think the ceasefire will last.""I think everyone is tired."
Trump told reporters: “I’m very good at solving war and I’m very good at restoring peace.”
