00:00Dawn broke in southern Lebanon as a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah took effect early
00:07Wednesday. The ceasefire was approved by Israel's cabinet with a 10-1 vote the day before. Prime
00:14Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the ceasefire will allow Israeli forces to isolate Hamas,
00:21an enemy that the regime has been fighting in Gaza also for a year now. He warned that
00:26Israel will strike back if Hezbollah violates the agreement.
00:56He
01:22said Hamas was counting on Hezbollah to fight by its side, but with Hezbollah now out of
01:27the picture, Israel will increase its pressure and get its hostages released. The ceasefire
01:33was brokered by the United States and France.
02:01Many displaced Lebanese are returning to their homes with the hope that the ceasefire
02:05will stay as long as possible.
