The Lebanese Army on Wednesday said it was taking the “necessary measures” to implement the ceasefire between Israel and the Iranian-backed Hezbollah militia.
The country’s military – which has attempted to remain neutral in the fighting – is to be stationed on the border as part of the ceasefire agreement to ensure that Hezbollah units remain north of the Litani River, in accordance with UN Security Council Resolution 1701.
The Lebanese Army is to cooperate with peacekeepers from the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) to complete the mission, it said in a post on X.

It further called on residents of southern Lebanon to be patient before attempting to return home as Israeli troops withdraw from the area.
Long traffic jams have already formed on roads to the region, with an Israeli military spokesman warning civilians to stay away from specific areas until the ceasefire conditions are met.
