Israel's military operations in Lebanon are set to continue, as stated by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, despite U.S. President Donald Trump's announcement of a two-week ceasefire. Netanyahu clarified that the ceasefire does not extend to Lebanon, where Israeli forces have been conducting strikes against Hezbollah, prompting warnings for civilians in southern Lebanon to evacuate. Reports indicate that more than 1,500 people have died in the conflict, many of whom are civilians. Trump’s ceasefire announcement focused primarily on Iran, leaving the situation in Lebanon unresolved. Following the announcement, Israel carried out airstrikes, including a bombing in Saida that killed eight individuals and injured 22. The conflict has displaced over 1.1 million people in Lebanon, with many living on the streets. As tensions rise, Hezbollah is expected to release a statement regarding its stance on the ceasefire and Netanyahu's declaration that Lebanon is not included in the agreement.
