Therefore, we oppose the withdrawal of the IDF from Lebanon, despite all current and future pressures. Prime Minister Netanyahu has also informed the US President about this decision.

No compromise on security – Ben-Gvir

Trump’s agreement does not bind us. Israel is not a slave to the United States and we are an independent and sovereign country!

The citizens of Israel are free from the Jews and the Jews are persecuted and murdered by the Jews in the last years of the world, giving security to the Jews in Israel.

Every time we succumbed to international pressure on account security…

Efforts to stop the ongoing conflict between Lebanon and Israel have suffered a major setback. After the death of at least four people in Israeli attacks in Lebanon, Hezbollah has completely rejected the new ceasefire agreement between Israel and the Lebanese government. Meanwhile, the ongoing fighting between the two sides has made efforts to establish peace in the region more difficult.

Hezbollah called the agreement insulting

Hezbollah chief Naim Qassim called the new agreement absurd, insulting and insulting in a written statement broadcast on television. He said the agreement calls for the withdrawal of Hezbollah fighters from southern Lebanon, which for them is tantamount to surrender, defeat and fulfillment of the enemy’s objectives. Naim Qasim clearly said that his priority is to end the Israeli aggression, implement a ceasefire and ensure the complete withdrawal of Israeli forces from Lebanon. He also reiterated that Hezbollah has not made any promises to stop the fighting. He said, “As long as our villages are not safe, as they continue to be bombed and destroyed and our people continue to be killed, northern Israel will not be safe either.”

Four people died in Israeli attacks

Hezbollah’s reaction came at a time when at least four people were killed in Israeli strikes, according to local officials. During the conflict, a soldier of the United Nations Peace Mission was also killed in the crossfire. On the other hand, an Israeli soldier has also died during the fighting in southern Lebanon.

Shortly after Naeem Qasim’s statement, sirens warning of drone attacks started sounding in many border areas of northern Israel. These included Shlomi Kasba, where Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and several ministers were meeting with local officials. According to the Prime Minister’s Office, Netanyahu had left the scene shortly before the sirens sounded. Israeli media also confirmed this.

Trying to stop drone attacks

The Israeli army later said that the sirens were used in an attempt to stop the drones, which fell near soldiers deployed in southern Lebanon. However, there is no information about anyone being injured in this incident. Israeli Army Chief Lieutenant General Eyal Zamir admitted that due to the ongoing war, there is increasing pressure on the cities and towns of northern Israel. He said that Israel’s military actions in Iran and Lebanon have created a new security situation in the region. According to Jamir, due to these operations the capabilities of Iran and Hezbollah have been weakened to an unprecedented level.

Army reached village in southern Lebanon

According to state-run media, on Thursday afternoon the Lebanese army, in coordination with UN peacekeepers, reached the village of Dibbin in southern Lebanon. This step was taken when the Israeli army vacated the area which had witnessed fierce fighting in recent days.
This is the first time since the latest Israel-Hezbollah war that started about three months ago that the Israeli army has retreated from an area in southern Lebanon.

Global efforts being affected by conflict

Israel’s occupation of large parts of southern Lebanon and ongoing fighting are also hampering efforts to end the Iran war and reopen the Strait of Hormuz. The Strait of Hormuz is an important route for oil and gas transportation. Due to its impact, pressure on the global economy has also increased. Iran has demanded that any permanent ceasefire agreement include Lebanon.

Different signals from Netanyahu and Trump

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who faces elections this year, says Israel will continue its campaign until Hezbollah completely ceases to be a threat. At the same time, US President Donald Trump, while downplaying the diplomatic deadlock and the failure of the ceasefire, said that in the Middle East, “ceasefire means that there will be less firing than before.”

The Israeli Air Force on Saturday carried out a series of attacks in Lebanon, targeting launchers used by Hezbollah. According to the IAF statement, Israel was under threat from the launchers located in Deir Al Jahrani Cruf Ramen and Al Samia.

There was a real threat to the Israeli states

Posting on Twitter, the Air Force informed that in three areas of Southern Lebanon, the Air Force attacked launchers belonging to the terrorist organization Hezbollah in the Deir Al Jahrani Kraframen and Al Samia areas, north of the Forward Defense Line in Southern Lebanon. The launchers used in the attack posed a real threat to IDF forces and civilians of the State of Israel.

The IDF continues to conduct operations in a forward defense line to eliminate threats to civilians and IDF forces of the State of Israel, the statement said. Earlier, the IAF had attacked Hezbollah launchers in Yaroun and Kafr Qila in Lebanon.

Hezbollah smuggling weapons through ambulance

On Friday, Israeli Defense Forces attacked Hezbollah military positions in the Deir Ams area. The attack was carried out on Hezbollah military bases in Deir Ams area. It contained rockets fired towards Shtula. The attack came after ceasefire violation. Hezbollah was using the ambulance as a shield to smuggle weapons.

During IDF searches, an ambulance being used by Hezbollah to hide weapons was found in southern Lebanon. The recovered weapons included explosive devices, mortar shells, magazines and grenades.

Mention of ceasefire agreement
It is noteworthy that last year in 2025, a ceasefire agreement was signed between Israel and Lebanon with the mediation of America. After this, Israel hopes that the Lebanese army will disarm Hezbollah. In fact, the ceasefire agreement between the two countries included the condition that Hezbollah would be disarmed. The Lebanese army has set itself a deadline of the end of 2025 to complete the first part of its multi-phase plan to disarm all non-state groups.

Attacks continue despite ceasefire
Despite a ceasefire coming into effect on 27 November 2024, Israeli forces continue attacks in Lebanon, citing the threat from Hezbollah. Along with this, Israel has also maintained its position at five major places on the Lebanon border.

At least 13 people have been killed in an Israeli airstrike near a Palestinian refugee camp in southern Lebanon. The country’s Health Ministry has confirmed this. Israel claimed that its targets were Hamas members, while Hamas has described these allegations as ‘lies and fabricated stories’.

Israel claims- ‘Hamas training camp targeted’
The Israeli Army (IDF) said that it targeted a ‘training compound’ of Hamas located in the Ein el-Hilweh area. According to him, this place was being used to plan and execute attacks on Israel. Hamas responded by saying that this claim is completely ‘fabricated’ and that they do not have any military bases in the Palestinian camps.

Treatment of injured continues, chaos in the camp
Lebanon’s Health Ministry said that apart from those who died, at least 4 people were injured. In the video that surfaced on social media, it was seen that ambulances were passing rapidly through the narrow streets of Ain al-Hilwe camp and a huge plume of smoke was rising from the area. According to reports, the attack took place outside a mosque, which is usually crowded with people at night.

What allegation did Hamas make?
Hamas condemned the attack, saying that the site targeted by Israel was actually an “open playground” and not a military base. The IDF says it used ‘precision weapons, aerial surveillance and additional intelligence’ to protect civilians from harm before the attack.

Israel-Hamas-Hezbollah conflict intensifies from 2023
On October 7, 2023, Hamas attacked southern Israel from Gaza, killing 1,200 people and taking 251 hostage. According to Gaza’s Hamas-administered Health Ministry, 69,169 Palestinians have died in Gaza so far in Israeli retaliation. The day after the Hamas attack, Lebanon-based Iran-backed organization Hezbollah fired rockets at Israel. After this, the conflict between the two continued for 13 months, which intensified with Israel’s heavy bombardment and ground action in October 2024.
