Israel's air strikes in the South Libanon: Return of violence despite ceasefire!

Südlibanon, Libanon - On February 14, 2025, the tensions between Israel and the Hisbollah militia in the South Libanon reached a new highlight. The Israeli Air Force targeted military positions of the Hezbollah on Thursday evening, which were classified as a threat to Israel's security. In particular, institutions for the storage of weapons and launching systems were targeted, which Israel refers to the "direct threat". This represents a clear violation of the ceasefire agreed last year, as the Israeli army emphasized.

The framework conditions for the ceasefire were created at the end of November 2024 after intensive struggles between both sides. The Hisbollah had repeatedly attacked Israel over a period of almost 14 months, with the aim of supporting Hamas in the Gaza Strip. In response to these attacks, Israel carried out devastating bombing, in which high -ranking members of the Hisbollah were killed. This aggressive answer from the Israeli military led to a preliminary agreement that was extended in January to February 18, 2025 to prevent further conflicts.

The current attacks mark a dangerous step back to the violent clashes that have been burdening the region for years. The rhetoric of the two sides escalates, which increases the concern about the conflict. While Israel continues to justify his military measures, Hisbollah rejects any responsibility for violating the ceasefire.
