Ceasefire Broken as Soldiers Kill Two in Lebanon

Israeli troops killed two Hezbollah-linked emergency workers in southern Lebanon — the first fatal incident since a fragile ceasefire took hold — sparking immediate condemnation from Hezbollah and raising fears of renewed violence as displaced families cautiously return home. Israel claims the men were armed terrorists ignoring warnings, while Hezbollah insists the ceasefire has been respected and accuses Israel of violating it. The disputed Ali al-Taher ridge, a flashpoint for past battles and believed to house Hezbollah’s underground infrastructure, remains central to the tension. With over 150 Israeli airstrikes and dozens of casualties in the days before the ceasefire, diplomatic talks in Washington aim to secure lasting peace — but Iran warns Lebanon’s inclusion is non-negotiable, or risk could unravel broader diplomatic efforts.
