Lebanon on High Alert as Ceasefire Hopes Hang in the Balance

According to a Lebanese government source speaking with Al Jazeera, a temporary halt in hostilities is contingent on the commencement of negotiations. Meanwhile, Israel has signalled its intention to persist with its military operations. Just hours prior, the Israeli military issued a warning to residents in the southern suburbs of Beirut, which have borne the brunt of aerial bombardments over the past five weeks. Ongoing strikes in the country’s south are accompanied by the ominous sound of a propeller-powered drone hovering above Beirut. The devastating impact of the past five weeks, coupled with Wednesday’s attacks, which resulted in 303 fatalities and 1,150 injuries, as reported by the Health Ministry, has left the population eagerly anticipating a ceasefire.
