Why it matters:
The attack underscores the Israeli regime’s continued military aggression in southern Lebanon despite a ceasefire. The repeated aggressions risk further destabilizing the region and drawing Hezbollah into deeper conflict.
The big picture:
Since the ceasefire was declared, the regime in Tel Aviv has repeatedly violated it with cross-border aggressions, heightening tensions with Lebanon.
Key points:
- The Israeli regime has conducted multiple similar attacks in recent weeks, further violating the ceasefire.
- The regime was forced to accept a ceasefire with Hezbollah after experiencing substantial losses during almost 14 months of hostilities and not accomplishing its objectives in its offensive against Lebanon. The truce came into effect on November 27.
- Since the start of the agreement, though, the occupation forces have been conducting near-daily attacks on Lebanon in violation of the ceasefire, including airstrikes across the Arab nation.
- On January 27, Lebanon announced its agreement to extend the ceasefire with Israel until February 18.
