Has Washington Set a Date to End the Iran War?

According to high-level Israeli sources reported by Ynet, the United States has designated April 9, 2026, as the official date to declare the end of the war with Iran.
This strategic timeline was reportedly chosen to align with Israel’s Independence Day, creating a powerful symbolic backdrop for the cessation of hostilities.
Ending the conflict by this date facilitates a planned visit by President Donald Trump to Israel, where he is expected to be honored with the National Israeli Prize.
If confirmed, the coordination between Washington and Jerusalem highlights the deep diplomatic and military ties between the two allies, marking a transition from active combat operations to a period of regional stabilization and high-stakes diplomatic celebrations just in time for the Israeli national holidays.
