Under a two-month ceasefire that took effect on November 27, Hezbollah is supposed to withdraw its armed presence from areas of southern Lebanon south of the Litani River. Israeli forces will also withdraw from southern Lebanon in stages, with the Lebanese Armed Forces to be deployed there first, including along the 120 km border with Israel, with monitors from the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon.
According to United Nations Security Council Resolution 1701, which ended the 2006 Second Lebanon War, Hezbollah is prohibited from operating in southern Lebanon south of the Litani River. (ANI)
