Despite the ceasefire, fierce fighting and destruction of houses continue in Lebanon, the number of victims is increasing

One person was killed and two others were injured in an Israeli attack on Wednesday in the western part of the Bikaa Valley in Lebanon. The attack took place despite the ceasefire between Tel Aviv and Beirut, TASR reports, according to reports from AFP and al-Jazeera.

• The Israeli attack in Lebanon claimed one victim.
• The attack occurred despite a declared ceasefire between the countries.
• Hezbollah responded with rockets and drones at Israel.
• The Israeli army hit the rocket launchers.

The Lebanese news agency NNA clarified that it was a drone attack. In addition, he also reports artillery fire and the destruction of houses in the south of the country, which is currently occupied by Israel. The militant group Hezbollah said on Tuesday it had fired rockets and drones into northern Israel in what it said was a response to alleged ceasefire violations by Tel Aviv, which included “attacks on civilians and the destruction of their homes and villages”.

They attack each other

According to the Israeli army, Hezbollah fired several rockets towards its soldiers in southern Lebanon. In response, the soldiers hit the rocket launchers. After the militant movement fired rockets at Israel on March 2, the Jewish state began daily strikes on Lebanon and deployed troops in the country’s south.

Despite US President Donald Trump announcing a ten-day truce between Israel and Lebanon on Thursday last week, Israeli troops continue to be active in the south of the neighboring country. Israel’s Defense Minister Yisrael Kac said on Sunday that if its soldiers were threatened, they would respond with “full force”.

Citing the US State Department, The Guardian reported that further talks between the representatives of Lebanon and Israel will take place in Washington on Thursday. US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee will reportedly be part of the US delegation involved in these negotiations.
