Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire: Thousands of displaced Lebanese return to south; Israel disapproves

Thousands of displaced Lebanese return to south following ceasefire

Dozens of Lebanese nationals have been seen heading back to the south after a ceasefire was declared on Wednesday between Israel and Lebanese militant group Hezbollah.

Reports indicate that a number of south settlers – now nomads are making their way back to their homes in the south despite warnings from Israeli authorities to steer clear off formerly evacuated areas in Lebanon.

So far the ceasefire, which came into effect at four in the morning local time, has held.

The end to the 13-month unrest has brought relief to the Lebanese after days of some of the most intense airstrikes and clashes since the war began.

Israel has said it will resume attacks if Hezbollah breaks the ceasefire agreement.
