Israel and Lebanon Agree to Renew Ceasefire, Establish Security Zones Amid Tensions
Israel and Lebanon have agreed to renew a ceasefire and establish Lebanese security zones, following U.S.-mediated talks. The agreement, co-signed by Israel, Lebanon, and the United States, requires Hezbollah to remove its fighters from areas south of the Litani River and cease its fire. The Lebanese Armed Forces will take exclusive control of newly created pilot zones. Despite the ceasefire, Israeli forces have conducted strikes in southern Lebanon, and Hezbollah has continued attacks on Israeli troops and civilians. The situation remains tense, with ongoing violence despite the ceasefire agreement.
