Israel strikes Lebanon, testing peace deal
Jun 29, 2026
Jerusalem [Israel], June 29: Israel has resumed air strikes on southern Lebanon, only days after signing a US-brokered agreement meant to end its war with the country.
The strikes came on Sunday, two days after the framework was signed in Washington following five rounds of talks.
Each side is presenting the same document as a victory on its own terms, and the deal has been rejected by Hezbollah and by far-right Israelis, raising immediate doubts over whether it can hold.
Lebanon's state-run National News Agency reported a series of attacks in the south on Sunday, a day after the Lebanese Ministry of Health said one person was killed in an Israeli attack there, the first death since the deal was signed.
