The ceasefire in Lebanon remains very fragile this Friday. In force since April 17, regularly violated by the belligerents, the truce was to end on Sunday. It was extended by three weeks Thursday evening, as announced by Donald Trump. In fact, Israel and Hezbollah must lay down their arms and stop the fighting. On the ground, the reality is quite different. The day before the negotiations, an Israeli strike killed Lebanese journalist Amal Khalil in the south of the country. “Israel deliberately targets journalists,” said Joseph Aoun, the president of Lebanon.
As soon as the truce was extended, the men of the Shiite militia rushed to spray their neighboring enemy with missiles. Sirens began to wail in the north of the Jewish state. The IDF took revenge Friday morning by striking the town of Touline, in southern Lebanon. Two people were killed. In the middle of the afternoon, the Israeli army called for the complete evacuation of another village, still in the same region.
