The ceasefire deal between Israel and Lebanon based Hezbollah militant group has come into effect and thousands of people from war-torn southern Lebanon have started to return to their homes as fear looms on both sides whether the ceasefire will hold.
Israel continued its barrage of attacks on Beirut and in southern Lebanon on Tuesday, killing at least 42 people until a ceasefire came into effect at 4am (local time) on Wednesday. The truce was brokered by the United States.
Displaced people of Lebanon were seen driving stacked cars with personal belongings and returning to the southern part of the country, despite warnings from the Israeli army that they should stay away from the area until the Israeli forces remain over there.
