Beirut, November 27 (RHC)-- Just after the ceasefire pact between Lebanon and the occupier Israel was implemented this Wednesday at 4:00 a.m. Beirut time, thousands of displaced people began to return to their homes in the south of the country, in the Bekaa region and in the southern suburbs of Beirut.

Dozens of residents also launched fireworks to celebrate the pact, which they considered a victory for the Islamic resistance of Hezbollah.

On Tuesday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu revealed that the cabinet had reached a ceasefire agreement with Lebanon.  Israeli media reported aspects of the agreement, such as Israel not carrying out any military action against Lebanon and progressively withdrawing over a period of up to 60 days.

Additionally, the agreement stipulates that both Lebanon and Israel comply with United Nations (UN) Security Council Resolution 1701.

Lebanon's Al-Mayadeen television channel posted several videos on its official X account that show numerous vehicles, including cars, motorcycles and trucks, on their way to the south of the country during the early morning.

The plan includes three phases: an initial truce, then the withdrawal of the Lebanese group's troops north of the Litani River; the complete withdrawal of Israeli forces from southern Lebanon within a period of 60 days; and finally, negotiations between the two countries to establish their border, which currently follows a line drawn by the UN after the 2006 conflict.

Since the clashes between Israel and Hezbollah began on October 8, 2023, one day after the start of the conflict in Gaza following Hamas' military operation against Israel, more than 3,800 deaths and more than 15,800 injuries have been recorded in Israeli attacks in Lebanon.
