Israeli Troops Stay in South Lebanon Past Deadline: What’s Going On?
Hey there! 🖐️ Have you heard about the situation between Israel and Lebanon? Let’s break it down together!
Israeli soldiers were supposed to leave southern Lebanon by Sunday morning. This was part of a peace deal made two months ago to stop the fighting between Israel and a group called Hezbollah.
But guess what? The Israeli forces are staying a bit longer. Why? Because not everything in the peace deal has happened yet.
What’s the Peace Deal About?
The peace agreement said that:
- Hezbollah should move its fighters and weapons out of southern Lebanon.
- The Lebanese army should take control of the area.
- Once that happens, Israeli troops would leave.
But since Hezbollah hasn’t moved out completely, and the Lebanese army isn’t fully in place, Israel says it’s not ready to leave yet.
What Are People Saying?
The Israeli leaders say they want to make sure everyone is safe and that the peace deal is fully followed. They are working with the United States to figure things out.
On the other hand, Hezbollah isn’t happy. They think that Israel staying longer is breaking the agreement. They want the Lebanese government to do something about it.
Why Does This Matter?
This is important because it affects many people living in both countries. In past fights, lots of people had to leave their homes. Everyone is hoping for peace so they can go back to their normal lives.
What’s Next?
We have to wait and see what happens next! Will the deal be fully carried out? Will Israeli troops leave soon? Stay tuned! 😊
