Israel strikes southern Beirut ahead of security cabinet meeting on Hezbollah ceasefire

 Israeli strikes hit Beirut's southern suburbs after its military issued an evacuation order in the area - the IDF has not yet commented

  • It comes ahead of a meeting with Israel's security cabinet on Tuesday to discuss a 60-day ceasefire deal with Hezbollah in Lebanon 


    Israeli troops began a land invasion of Lebanon almost two months ago, in response to almost a year of rocket attacks from Hezbollah

  • The deal would reportedly see Israeli troops gradually withdraw from Lebanon, while Hezbollah would move away from the Israeli border

  • Any ceasefire in Lebanon would not directly affect Israel's war in Gaza, which began after Hamas launched its attacks on 7 October last year, and has seen more than 44,000 Palestinians killed.
