The ceasefire agreement reached between Israel and Lebanon in November 2024 has been undermined by recent activities. Despite the agreement, which aimed to halt cross-border attacks, Israeli operations have persisted.
The NRC indicates that these attacks, alongside ground incursions, have destabilized the ceasefire. Data from security company Atlas Assistance highlights that these figures only account for manned aircraft attacks and exclude drone-related incidents.
Israeli military actions have targeted buildings in southern Lebanon, claiming these sites were used by Hezbollah as military infrastructure. These operations were conducted following evacuation orders to local residents.

Continuous attacks have exacerbated fear and instability in Lebanon, hindering reconstruction efforts. The conflict has resulted in significant destruction of infrastructure and the displacement of approximately 64,000 individuals.
Humanitarian agencies, including the NRC, continue to address the aftermath of these events. Recent damage to a school in west Bekaa, previously repaired by the NRC, exemplifies the recurring challenges faced by local communities.
Despite the stipulations of the ceasefire agreement, which required Hezbollah to withdraw north of the Litani River and Israel to retreat from southern Lebanon, numerous breaches have been reported. The Lebanese government has documented thousands of violations attributable to Israeli actions.
Since the ceasefire, Hezbollah has engaged in one retaliatory attack, while Israeli operations have resulted in over 330 fatalities in Lebanon, including civilian casualties and the loss of a senior Hezbollah official.
