Description:

The latest exchange of fire between Israel and Hezbollah is testing the limits of last week’s already fragile ceasefire deal.

Hours after Hezbollah fired two mortar shells at an Israeli military outpost on Monday, Israel carried out its largest series of air strikes since the truce came into effect.

Nine people were killed in two villages in southern Lebanon.

“Yesterday was the most dangerous moment for the cessation of hostilities,” said one seasoned observer in Lebanon.

The Israeli military said it targeted Hezbollah fighters, rocket launchers and infrastructure. However, in a statement it added, that: “The State of Israel remains obligated to the fulfilment of the conditions of the ceasefire agreement in Lebanon.”
