15 reported killed in Lebanon because the Israeli forces remained after the withdrawal deadline

Israeli forces killed at least 15 people and injured more than 80 others in southern Lebanon on Sunday after protesters requested their withdrawal in accordance with Fire Interruption Agreement with HezbollahThe Lebanese authorities said.

The dead included two women and soldiers of the Lebanese army, according to a statement from the Ministry of Health.

The demonstrators, some of whom wore the flags of Hezbollah, tried to enter several villages to protest for the failure of Israel to withdraw from southern Lebanon to the 60-day deadline, which was in the Agreement on a tribute stopped by the war of Israel-Hezbollah at the end of November.

Israel said on Friday that he would keep the troops in the south outside Sunday, because the Lebanese army is not yet fully distributed to ensure that Hezbollah does not re -establish its presence in the area. In the meantime, the army supported in Lebanon said that it could not be scheduled until the Israeli forces withdrew and that he accused Israel of delaying in his withdrawal.

The Israeli army blamed Hezbollah for the excitement of Sunday’s protests.

The statement said his troops had fallen out of warning shots to “remove threats in numerous areas in which the suspect was identified.” He added that numerous suspects near the Israeli troops were arrested and questioned.

Lebanese President Joseph Aoun said in a statement that deals with the people of southern Lebanon on Sunday that “Lebanese sovereignty and territorial integrity are not negotiating, and I follow this issue at the highest levels to ensure your rights and dignity.”

He urged them to “practice self -sufficient and confidence in the Lebanese armed forces.” The Lebanese army, in a separate statement, said she followed civilians to some cities in the border area and urged residents to follow military instructions to ensure their safety.

The speaker of Parliament Nabih Berri, whose party for the movement is associated with Hezbollah and who served as an interlocutor between a militant group and the US during the negotiations of the fire interruption, said that Sunday’s bloodshed “is a clear and urgent call for international community that will act immediately and Compal Israel to withdraw from the occupied Lebanese territories. “

The spokesman of the Arabic language of the Israeli army, Avichay Adraee, announced on Xu that Hezbollah had sent “rebellions” and “tries to warm up the situation to cover up his situation and status in Lebanon and the Arab world.”

He warned the inhabitants of the border area not to try to return to their villages.

“Idf does not intend to target you, so at this stage you are forbidden to return to your homes from this line south until further notice. Anyone moving south of this line – is exposed to danger,” he said.

The UN Special Coordinator for Lebanon Jeanine Hennis-PLASSCHAET and the head of the UN Peace Force Mission known as Unifr, Lieutenant AroLdo Lázaro, invited a joint statement for Israel and Lebanon to fulfill their obligations in accordance with the Prophet Fire Agreement.

“The fact is that the time deadlines provided for in November are not fulfilled,” the statement said. “As tragically seen this morning, the conditions have not yet been established for a safe return of citizens to their villages along the blue line.”

Unifr said that further risk of violence undermines a fragile security situation in the area and “the prospect of stability launched by the termination of hostilities and the formation of a government in Lebanon.”

He called for the complete withdrawal of Israeli troops, removal of unauthorized weapons and property south of the Litani River, diverting the Lebanese army throughout South Lebanon and providing a safe and dignified return of the displaced civilians on both sides of the blue line.

The AP team was stranded overnight at the Unififa Base near the May-Jabal after the Israeli army raised the road blockade on Saturday, while the peacekeeping forces joined the patrol. Journalists reported that they heard shots and thunderous sounds on Sunday morning, and peaceful people said dozens of protesters gathered nearby.

In the village of Aita Al Shaab, the families wandered through flattened concrete buildings looking for the remains of the homes they left. The Israeli forces are not present.

“These are our houses,” said Hussein Bajouk, one of the residents who return. “As much as we destroy, we will renew.”

Bajouk added that he was convinced that former leader of Hezbollah Hassan Nasrallah, who was killed in an Israeli strike in the southern suburb of Beirut in September, is indeed still alive.

“I don’t know how much we will wait, another month or two months … but Sayyed will come out and speak,” he said, using the honor for Nasrallah.

On the other side of the border in Kibut Manare, Orna Weinberg examined the destruction of a recent conflict on its neighbors and Lebanese villages on the other side of the border. The sound of the shooting sporadically jumped in the distance.

“Unfortunately, we have no way to defend our own children without harm to our children,” Weinberg, 58, said. “It’s a tragedy on all sides.”

About 112,000 Lebanese remained displaced, of over one million who fled their homes during the war.
