Lebanese residents of villages in southern Lebanon began returning to their homes on Wednesday despite the IDF issuing warnings not to do so. IDF spokesperson in Arabic Avichay Adraee issued a warning after the ceasefire went into effect, ordering Lebanese residents of evacuated southern villages not to return yet. “With the agreement coming into effect, the IDF remains deployed in its positions in southern Lebanon,” he wrote. The IDF responded to the Lebanese civlians who ignored the warning by firing mortars in several border villages. A video of Lebanese civilians walking just meters away from an IDF tank circulated on Israeli social media. One Israeli who posted the video stated: “We’re doing a ceasefire with them? Simply embarrassing and worrisome. In the video, Lebanese residents are very close to the IDF tank in the town of Al-Khiyam, five kilometers from Metula.” (YWN Israel Desk – Jerusalem)
