Israel and Hezbollah Accuse Each Other of Violating Newly Brokered Ceasefire

A U.S.- and France-mediated truce begins with allegations of airstrikes and military infractions in southern Lebanon.

The Lebanese army has accused Israel of multiple violations of the ceasefire, including air incursions and attacks on Lebanese territory.
Israel's military confirmed a strike on a Hezbollah weapons facility in southern Lebanon, citing 'terrorist activity' at the site.
Tens of thousands of displaced Lebanese civilians have begun returning to their homes despite safety concerns in the border region.
The ceasefire agreement, brokered by the U.S. and France, requires Israel to withdraw its troops from southern Lebanon within 60 days and Hezbollah to retreat beyond the Litani River.
A monitoring commission involving the U.S., France, Lebanon, Israel, and UN peacekeepers has been established to oversee adherence to the truce.
