The IDF Spokesperson's Unit stated Friday afternoon (16:13 Jerusalem) that Hezbollah has violated the ceasefire. The brief announcement did not specify the nature or location of the alleged violation. The military stressed that its forces in the field retain full operational freedom.
As The Zioneer reported on Friday at 15:56, CNN reported that the United States relayed to Iran an Israeli pledge not to escalate in Lebanon following Hezbollah ceasefire violations, and that the ball was in Hezbollah's court. Iran earlier accused Israel of violating the ceasefire and demanded U.S. intervention, as The Zioneer reported Friday at 08:56.
The IDF's latest statement comes in a context of repeated accusations from both sides. Past IDF declarations this month have accused Hezbollah of "blatant" violations, while Lebanese and Iranian sources have made reciprocal accusations against Israel. The specific details of today's alleged violation remain unconfirmed.
