Lebanese Army Deploys to Southern Border Amidst Israeli Withdrawal and Humanitarian Crisis

The Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) have initiated deployments into southern Lebanon, including areas previously held by Israeli forces, following a ceasefire agreement and Israeli withdrawals.

Concurrently, humanitarian access to Israeli-occupied Christian villages in southern Lebanon remains restricted.
