The Israeli Army Fails to Comply with the Agreement to Withdraw from Lebanon
World
The situation in southern Lebanon is escalating again. The Israeli army has set fire to houses in the town of Aytarun. This action violates the agreement between Lebanon and Israel and may further exacerbate the conflict in the region.
On November 27, 2024, Lebanon and Israel signed a ceasefire agreement. According to this deal, Israeli troops were required to withdraw from the southern regions of Lebanon within 60 days. However, instead of fulfilling its obligations, Israel extended the deadline to February 18.
The Lebanese government condemned this decision, as the Lebanese army was supposed to take control of the area after the Israeli withdrawal. However, due to resistance from Israeli forces, Lebanese troops have still not been able to enter Aytarun.
Until the Israeli army completes its withdrawal, civilians are not allowed to return to Aytarun. This situation could lead to prolonged humanitarian problems in the region. At present, Israeli military vehicles are blocking roads, while the Lebanese authorities are working to clear them.
The actions of the Israeli army in Lebanon have raised serious concerns within the international community. The United Nations Security Council's Resolution 1701, adopted in 2006, called for a full Israeli withdrawal from Lebanese territory. The current violation of this resolution poses a renewed risk of escalation in the long-standing conflict between Lebanon and Israel.
Meanwhile, Lebanon is undergoing significant internal political changes. In the second round of voting, the Lebanese parliament elected Joseph Aoun, the commander-in-chief of the army, as the country’s president. This decision aims to strengthen Lebanon’s armed forces and ensure internal stability. However, the delayed withdrawal of Israeli forces may further complicate the Lebanese army’s position.
