Netanyahu Says Israeli Forces Will Stay in Lebanon Past Ceasefire Deadline
Briefly

The Israeli military has declared its intention to occupy southern Lebanon beyond the deadline of January 26, set in a ceasefire deal with Hezbollah. Prime Minister Netanyahu attributed this decision to the slow deployment of Lebanese forces in the region, stating that Israel would continue its withdrawal process in coordination with the United States. The ceasefire, which was supposed to lead to a replacement of Israeli forces by UNIFIL and local troops, faces challenges due to ongoing violations, complicating the stability of the region further.
The Israeli military is planning to continue occupying southern Lebanon past the deadline set forth in Israel's ceasefire agreement with Hezbollah, according to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Israeli forces are going to remain in southern Lebanon past the deadline, claiming that the Lebanese army has not deployed quickly enough in the region.
