Lebanon Ceasefire Strained by Israeli Strikes and Hezbollah Fire
The recently brokered Lebanon ceasefire faces mounting challenges as Israeli airstrikes and Hezbollah mortar attacks raise fears of renewed conflict. Israeli strikes killed ten people in southern Lebanon, while Hezbollah launched mortars as a warning against alleged ceasefire violations.
Israeli forces accused Hezbollah of hostile actions, while Hezbollah claims the strikes violate the agreement. The ceasefire, facilitated by the US and France, seeks to end hostilities between the two sides. However, both parties have accused each other of breaching terms, threatening to unravel the fragile peace.
