Cars are seen heading in to parts of south Lebanon hours after the truce came into force
A ceasefire proposal agreed to by Lebanon and Israel stipulates that only 'official military and security forces' in Lebanon are authorised to carry arms there, according to a copy of the deal dated on Tuesday and seen by Reuters on Wednesday. The proposal refers to both sides' commitment to fully implementing United Nations Security Council Resolution 1701, including provisions that refer to the 'disarmament of all armed groups in Lebanon'.
The ceasefire has brought relief across the tiny Mediterranean nation, coming after days of some of the most intense airstrikes and clashes since the war began, though many wondered if the agreement to stop fighting would hold. Israel has said it will attack if Hezbollah breaks the ceasefire. Hundreds of cars made their way into southern Lebanon, defying a warning from the Israeli military to stay away from previously evacuated areas.
