MADRID, 15 (EUROPA PRESS)
The Israeli army carried out a new wave of attacks on Friday against military and underground infrastructure belonging to the Shiite militant party Hezbollah in the city of Nabatiye, despite the ceasefire agreed between the parties last November.
Israeli Defense Forces Arabic spokesman Avichai Adraee said that "military activities" had been detected in this area in the south of the neighboring country, which constitutes "a violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon," although there are no immediate casualty figures.
Israel justifies this type of aggression against Lebanon by arguing that it is acting against Hezbollah activities and, therefore, is not violating the ceasefire agreed upon in November. However, both Beirut and the group have been critical of these actions, which have also been condemned by the United Nations.
The agreement, reached after months of fighting following the attacks of October 7, 2023, stipulated that both Israel and Hezbollah would withdraw their troops from southern Lebanon. However, the Israeli army has maintained five posts in the territory of its neighboring country, a move also criticized by Lebanese authorities and the Shiite group, which is demanding an end to this deployment.
