Sources: Framework for a ceasefire begins to take shape
After several weeks of airstrikes and ground fighting, the framework for a peace agreement between Israel and Hezbollah is beginning to take shape. This is stated by several government sources in the United States, Lebanon, Israel and other Middle Eastern countries for the New York Times.
The sources stress that several key issues remain to be ironed out, and that there is a risk of disagreements delaying the agreement, but say there are reasons for optimism.
The agreement begins with a 60-day ceasefire. During that time, the IDF will leave southern Lebanon, and Hezbollah will withdraw north of the Litani River.
After that, Lebanon's army and UN peacekeeping forces will be deployed in the border area, and a control mechanism developed by the United States will ensure that the warring parties stay away.
Abir's house was destroyed by bombs: "Had taken a loan"
Seven employees of a hospital in Baalbek, Lebanon, including the hospital's director, have been killed in an Israeli attack. This is stated by Lebanon's Ministry of Health according to AFP.
During Friday, Hezbollah also fired rockets at Israel on at least four occasions. It is still unclear what, if any, damage the attacks caused.
Israel has also carried out strikes inside Beirut, which it says were aimed at "Hezbollah's terrorist infrastructure".
"Before the attacks, several measures were taken to minimize the damage," Israel's military writes on its official Telegram account.
Abir Darwich, who lives in one of the residential buildings destroyed in the attack, told Reuters she left her home after being warned by Israel.
- Most of the people who lived in those apartments had taken out loans to buy them. Life savings are gone, memories and security that Israel decided to steal from us, she says.
