The Lebanon ceasefire took effect at 4:00 AM, following cabinet's 10-1 approval. Within hours, four Hezbollah operatives approached Israeli positions, prompting warning shots and implementation of a dusk-to-dawn curfew south of the Litani.
IDF revealed details of its final pre-ceasefire operation: destruction of Hezbollah's largest precision missile facility in the Bekaa Valley, including chemical weapons development infrastructure. Reports indicated 4,000 Hezbollah operatives were eliminated during the 14-month conflict.
The Lebanese Army began deploying south of Litani, while residents attempted returning despite military warnings. US rejected Hezbollah's demands for border changes, while previously undisclosed "Iranian clause" in American guarantees emerged. Netanyahu announced appeal against ICC arrest warrants, while Egyptian delegation prepared to discuss potential Gaza ceasefire following Hamas signals of readiness for negotiations.
