On November 27, a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Lebanon came into force.

This was reported by MIA "Russia Today".

What agreement did Israel and Lebanon make?

The settlement plan was proposed by the United States. According to the document, within 60 days the Lebanese army will occupy territories in the south of the country.

Israel will completely withdraw its troops from Lebanon, and Hezbollah forces will withdraw north of the Litani River.

Which in different sections flows 20-30 km from the border with Israel, notes MIA “Russia Today” .

An international committee to monitor the implementation of the agreement, headed by the United States, will also be created.

The United States guaranteed Israel support for military action in the event of threats from Lebanese territory and actions to prevent the re-establishment of a Hezbollah presence in the south of the country.

Last night, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a statement warning that if Hezbollah violated the ceasefire, hostilities would resume.

For reference

A truce is a temporary cessation of military (combat) actions by agreement of the warring parties in the entire theater of military operations (general truce) or in a separate section of it (local truce).
