Thousands of displaced Lebanese return home after ceasefire deal
Thousands of Lebanese, who had been displaced from their homes in the south due to deadly Israeli attacks, returned to their homes on Wednesday, November 27.
Images of their return, published by Arabic media, show a caravan of vehicles carrying Lebanese refugees heading towards southern Lebanon in the morning.
They returned home after a ceasefire agreement was signed between Lebanon and Israel, brokered by the United States and France.
The agreement officially came into effect at 4 AM, Wednesday, November 27, allowing the Lebanese to return to their homes.
Southern Lebanon, located along the border with Israel, had previously been the site of Israeli military advances, and many of its villages had been reduced to rubble.
The ceasefire, which will last for 60 days, is designed for the gradual withdrawal of Israeli forces from Lebanon, the return of displaced Lebanese to their regions, and the control of the situation by the Lebanese Army.
The President of France, a key player in this agreement, emphasized that Lebanon should use this new phase to rebuild the country.
The return of Lebanese citizens marks a significant moment in the ongoing recovery process for the country, offering a sense of hope after months of destruction. However, the rebuilding efforts will face immense challenges, especially in regions that have been severely impacted by the conflict.
The successful implementation of this ceasefire could serve as a foundation for longer-term peace and stability in the region, but much will depend on continued cooperation between Lebanon, Israel, and the international community.
