Beirut, December 7 (RHC)-- Israeli warplanes have flown above Beirut and bombed southern Lebanon in the latest violations of the ceasefire agreement with the Arab country.

Lebanon’s National News Agency (NNA) said Israeli drones also on Friday flew at a low altitude above Beirut’s southern suburb.  The news agency added that Israeli warplanes struck an area near the Litani River between the towns of Yohmor al-Chaqif and Zawtar al-Sharqiyah in the Nabatieh district in southern Lebanon.

Israel bombed more buildings in the town of Odaisseh in the Marjayoun district in southern Lebanon.

On Wednesday, the Israeli regime violated the ceasefire agreement with Lebanon 12 times. It carried out various forms of aggression across the Arab country, including dozens of airstrikes and firing on civilians.

These violations were committed despite the ceasefire agreement with Lebanon that was established last week.  Since the ceasefire was implemented on November 27, Lebanon has documented dozens of violations, amid hopes of an end to the 14 months of aggression by Israel.

According to Lebanon’s Health Ministry data, Israeli attacks have killed at least 14 people and left 13 others wounded since the agreement was implemented.

The ceasefire stipulates that Israeli forces are to gradually withdraw south of the Blue Line, a temporary line drawn after the withdrawal of Israel from the country’s territory in 2000, while the Lebanese army is expected to deploy its troops in southern Lebanon within a maximum of 60 days.

However, Israel has not yet withdrawn completely from southern Lebanese towns, warning residents against returning home amid ongoing air raids, drone strikes, and artillery bombardments, which have resulted in dozens of shells fired and multiple detonation operations, averaging three to four incidents each day.
