AL Jazeera cites a source in Hezbollah who says that the Lebanese terror group will participate in the four-day ceasefire slated to begin tomorrow even though it was not part of the negotiations between Israel and Hamas.

The source states that Hezbollah will stop firing at Israel from southern Lebanon if Israel adheres to the ceasefire.

However, any violation of the ceasefire will be met with a fierce response, the source adds.

Hezbollah separately confirms the death of its 79th fighter killed since the war’s outbreak.
