Israel Violates Lebanon Ceasefire 140 Times, Targets Border Crossings
Beirut (Quds News Network)- Israel continues to breach the fragile ceasefire with Lebanon, which came into effect on November 27. Early Friday, Israeli forces entered the towns of Aitaroun in Nabatieh and Ayta Al-Shaab in Bint Jbeil. The incursion included movements of tanks and military vehicles.
Lebanese news agency NNA reported that Israeli forces used medium machine guns during a sweeping operation in Ayta Al-Shaab overnight. On Thursday evening, an Israeli airstrike in the same town injured five people, further violating the ceasefire agreement.
The ceasefire agreement included key conditions: Israeli forces must withdraw south of the Blue Line within 60 days, and Lebanese Army and security forces are tasked with controlling the border and southern regions. Despite this, Israel has committed 140 ceasefire violations, killing 14 Lebanese and injuring 18 others.
