Israel-Hezbollah Temporary Ceasefire Deal Expected to be Implemented Soon: Sky News
After weeks of escalating tensions between Israel and Hezbollah, a temporary ceasefire deal is expected to be implemented in the coming hours, according to sources close to the negotiations.
The ceasefire deal comes after both sides engaged in a series of cross-border attacks, with Israel launching airstrikes on Hezbollah targets in Lebanon and the militant group firing rockets into Israeli territory.
The latest round of violence began when Hezbollah claimed responsibility for a drone attack on an Israeli military vehicle near the border, prompting a swift retaliation from Israel. The exchange of fire continued for several days, with casualties reported on both sides.
The ceasefire deal, brokered by third-party mediators, is expected to include a cessation of hostilities from both parties, as well as the establishment of a buffer zone along the border to prevent future flare-ups.
While the temporary ceasefire is a positive step towards de-escalating tensions in the region, both Israel and Hezbollah remain on high alert, with the potential for further conflict still looming.
Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story as the ceasefire deal is finalized and implemented in the coming hours.
