Israeli Drone Strikes Kill Multiple Hezbollah Operatives in Southern Lebanon Post-Ceasefire

Israeli drone strikes in southern Lebanon have recently killed multiple Hezbollah members, including Hassan Shahrour, a Hezbollah activist killed in a strike on a civilian car, and Amar Qasibani, a Hezbollah commander. These strikes occurred despite a ceasefire agreement brokered by the United States and France in November 2024, which was intended to end hostilities following the Gaza war. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) justify these actions by claiming the targeted Hezbollah operatives were involved in intelligence gathering and rebuilding militant activities near the Lebanese border. Lebanese officials, including Prime Minister Nawaf Salam, have condemned these strikes, questioning Israel's commitment to the ceasefire and calling on the international community to pressure Israel to halt its incursions. Since the ceasefire, Israel has reportedly carried out over 4,500 attacks on Lebanese territory, resulting in significant casualties, including civilians. The conflict underscores ongoing tensions and violations despite international efforts to maintain peace in the region.
