While it is reported that Israel has "principally" approved the ceasefire agreement with Hezbollah, airstrikes on Lebanon continue. Most recently, it was reported that 13 people lost their lives in airstrikes carried out by Israel in southern and eastern Lebanon.
It has been reported that 13 people lost their lives in the airstrikes carried out by the Israeli army in southern and eastern Lebanon. According to a report by the Lebanese official news agency NNA, Israeli warplanes bombed villages and towns in the southern Nabatiye province.
In the attacks, 8 people were killed, and many others were injured. In the attack carried out by the Israeli army on the city of Sidon, 1 person was killed, and 7 others were injured. It was reported that 4 people were killed in the Israeli attack on the town of Nabi Sheet in the Baalbek-Hermel region of eastern Lebanon.
Yesterday, the Israeli army had reported that 23 people lost their lives in the attacks carried out in various areas of the city of Tyre in southern Lebanon.
CEASEFIRE CLAIMS
It was alleged that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu "principally" approved a newly emerged ceasefire agreement with Hezbollah during security consultations with Israeli officials last night. According to CNN International, government-affiliated sources stated that Israel still has reservations about some details of the agreement conveyed to the Lebanese government.
CONSISTS OF 3 PHASES
The Israeli-based publication Haaretz claimed that the ceasefire proposal consists of 3 phases. In the first phase, Hezbollah forces will withdraw to the north of the Litani River. This step will be followed by the withdrawal of Israeli forces from the Lebanese borders where they are stationed. In the third and final phase, negotiations will begin to determine the border areas that are a subject of dispute between Israel and Lebanon. Meanwhile, the Lebanese army will occupy the areas from which Hezbollah has withdrawn. This plan is based on the United Nations Security Council resolution that ended the war between Hezbollah and Israel in 2006.
"PROGRESS HAS BEEN MADE"
On the other hand, Israeli Government Spokesperson David Mencer stated that progress is being made towards a ceasefire in Lebanon, but there are some "issues" that need to be addressed. An unnamed official speaking to Israeli state television said that "significant progress has been made" in the negotiations aimed at reaching a ceasefire in Lebanon. The Israeli official expressed that Lebanon is "closer to a ceasefire than ever" and stated, "If there are no surprises, an agreement (ceasefire) could be reached in the coming days."
