A recent extension of the ceasefire period will see Israeli forces maintain their presence and continue violent attacks in the south
Israel will not withdraw its troops from southern Lebanon until it deems that the Lebanese army has fulfilled its commitments in the ceasefire agreement, an Israeli military official told the Ynet news site on 29 January.
“Until the Lebanese army fulfills its missions and demonstrates good and sufficient control over the territory, we will not recommend transferring control to [the Lebanese army],” the source said.
The report comes after the extension of the 60-day ceasefire implementation period, which was supposed to see the Israeli army withdraw from Lebanon and the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) dismantle Hezbollah’s presence and infrastructure south of the Litani River.
The implementation period has now been extended until 18 February as a result of Israeli pressure on the US. The Lebanese state reluctantly agreed to the extension.
According to the Ynet report, the next three weeks will see Israeli troops “remain in southern Lebanon and conduct a long series of operations to destroy terrorist areas and collect weapons that Hezbollah has hidden and that still remain, mainly in the eastern sector, which borders the Upper Galilee.”
