The IDF says it has not yet withdrawn any forces from southern Lebanon, as under the ceasefire deal it has 60 days to do so.
During the coming weeks, the Lebanese Army will gradually take responsibility for southern Lebanon and an American-led committee that will adjudicate complaints regarding potential ceasefire violations will be established.
Throughout today, there were several incidents of Lebanese people — civilians and Hezbollah members — trying to reach the border villages and areas where the IDF is still deployed.
Troops fired warning shots, and direct fire in some cases, at the suspects who approached the area. There are several Lebanese people dead and wounded in the incidents. Four Hezbollah operatives were also detained today.
The IDF says it expects such incidents to continue amid the gradual handover of southern Lebanon to the Lebanese Army.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
