"Fragile" Ceasefire Begins in Lebanon After Israel Launched More Devastating Attacks

Nearly two months after Israel invaded Lebanon, a fragile" ceasefire has been reached between Israel and Lebanon. Under the deal, Israel says it will withdraw troops from Lebanon's south over a 60-day period, though Lebanese writer Lina Mounzer says this is already being contradicted by the behavior and the directives of the Israeli army," which continued to bomb Lebanese civilian areas through the waning hours of official hostilities. Thousands of displaced Lebanese are now returning to southern Lebanon, hoping that their homes are still standing. Many are mourning the nearly 3,800 Lebanese killed by U.S. weapons and Israeli warfare. While there is relief" in the country, people are finding it very difficult to celebrate," says Mounzer. The grieving process begins now."
