Israel-Hezbollah Ceasefire Takes Effect, Strikes Exchanged Shortly Before Truce | N18G

A ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah took effect on November 27, 2024, following an agreement brokered by the U.S. and France. U.S. President Joe Biden announced the deal, emphasizing that it aims for a permanent cessation of hostilities. The ceasefire includes a 60-day drawdown period during which Israel will gradually withdraw its forces, and Lebanon’s army will deploy in the south to take control of the region, ensuring Hezbollah does not rebuild its infrastructure along the border. Lebanese Foreign Minister Abdallah Bou Habib confirmed that 5,000 Lebanese troops will be stationed in southern Lebanon during this time. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu supported the ceasefire, stressing that Israel would respond decisively to any violations by Hezbollah, including strikes if the group attempts to rearm or rebuild its fortifications. The agreement also allows Israel to focus on the threat posed by Iran, replenish its depleted arms supplies, and give its military a rest. Despite the ceasefire in Lebanon, there was no indication it would immediately lead to a truce with Hamas in Gaza. The conflict, which has killed thousands since its eruption following a Hamas attack last year, continues to fuel tensions in the region. The Israel-Lebanon ceasefire is seen as a step towards stabilizing the border and isolating Hezbollah.
