6 Israeli ceasefire violations on Wednesday, bringing total to 301
On Wednesday, the Israeli occupation army committed 6 violations of the ceasefire with Hezbollah, bringing the total number of violations since the agreement went into effect 29 days ago to 301.
This is according to statistics prepared by Anadolu Agency based on the announcements of the official Lebanese News Agency until 18:20 GMT.
According to various news published by the agency, the violations today were concentrated in the capital Beirut, the Baalbek district in the Baalbek-Hermel governorate (east), the Bint Jbeil district in the Nabatieh governorate (south), and other areas in southern Lebanon.
The violations included a warplane raid, the burning of a house, the flying of drones and warplanes, and the firing of heavy and medium machine guns.
In Beirut, an Israeli drone was recorded flying at a low altitude in the airspace of the southern suburb, which is a stronghold of Hezbollah.
In Baalbek district, Israeli warplanes raided a house in the plain of the town of Tarya, without causing any casualties.
In Bint Jbeil district, Israeli soldiers burned a house in the town of Maroun al-Ras, while firing heavy and medium machine guns inside the town’s neighborhoods.
In the airspace of the eastern sector of southern Lebanon, Israeli warplanes and drones were recorded flying.
Since November 27, a fragile ceasefire has prevailed, ending the mutual shelling between Israel and Hezbollah that began on October 8, 2023, and then turned into a full-scale war on September 23.
Under the pretext of confronting "threats from Hezbollah," Israel committed 295 violations of the ceasefire in Lebanon until the end of Tuesday, resulting in a total of 32 deaths and 38 injuries, according to a tally by Anadolu Agency based on data from the Lebanese Ministry of Health.
These violations prompted Hezbollah to respond, on December 2, for the first time since the agreement came into effect, with a missile attack targeting the Ruwaysat al-Alam military site in the occupied Lebanese hills of Kfar Shuba.
The most prominent provisions of the ceasefire agreement include Israel's gradual withdrawal to the south of the Blue Line separating it from Lebanon within 60 days, and the deployment of Lebanese army and security forces along the border, crossing points, and the southern region.
Under the agreement, the Lebanese army will be the only entity allowed to carry weapons in the south of the country, with the dismantling of military infrastructure and sites, the confiscation of unauthorized weapons, and the establishment of a committee to oversee and help ensure the implementation of these obligations.
The Israeli aggression on Lebanon resulted in 4,063 deaths and 16,663 injuries, including a large number of children and women, in addition to the displacement of about 1,400,000 people. Most of the victims and displaced persons were recorded after the escalation of the aggression on September 23.
