Israel Hezbollah War: Netanyahu Says Truce Deal To Allow Focus On Iran-Hamas

US President Joe Biden announced a ceasefire deal between Israel and Hezbollah on Tuesday (Nov. 26), which came into effect early Wednesday morning.&nbsp;

The long-awaited deal came after months of conflict between the Lebanese militant group and the Jewish nation.&nbsp;

While announcing the deal, France and the US, who played the mediators, said in a joint statement that the ceasefire deal would end the fighting in Lebanon and secure Israel from the "threat of Hezbollah."&nbsp;

Here's what we know about the Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire deal:

<h2>A 'permanent' deal</h2>

Joe Biden briefed the media while announcing the deal said that it is "designed to be a permanent ceasefire".

According to the ceasefire agreement, Hezbollah will remove its fighters and weapons from the area between the Blue Line over 60 days.&nbsp;

The Blue Line is the demarcation line that divides Lebanon from Israel and the Golan Heights.

The agreement further says that Hezbollah fighters will be replaced by the Lebanese army forces in the area around the Blue Line.&nbsp;

The Lebanese army&nbsp;will ensure the removal of Hezbollah weapons and its infrastructure from the area and will further prevent their rebuilding.&nbsp;

Meanwhile, over the same 60 days, Israel will remove its forces and civilians from the area.&nbsp;

Biden added that it would enable civilians from both sides to return home.&nbsp;

<h2>5,000 Lebanese troops in southern parts</h2>

The deal further asks for the deployment of 5,000 Lebanese army officials to the southern part of the nation.&nbsp;

However, the Lebanese army has reportedly said it does not have the required resources, like money, manpower, and equipment, to execute what the agreement asks.&nbsp;

But many Western officials have said that at this point, Hezbollah has weakened, and that emerges as an opportunity for the Lebanese government to re-establish control in the territory, said a BBC report.&nbsp;

<h2>Monitoring of the implementation</h2>

According to the report, the United States and France will join the existing tripartite mechanism, comprising UNIFIL, Lebanon, and Israel, which will be charged with monitoring violations.

"There will be no US combat troops in the area, but there will be military support for the Lebanese Armed Forces, as we've done in the past. But in this case, it'll be typically done with the Lebanese army and in conjunction with the French military as well," a US official told BBC.&nbsp;

<h2>Israel said 'will attack' if deal is violated by Hezbollah</h2>

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claimed after the deal was announced that his nation would respond to any violation by Hezbollah.

"If Hezbollah violates the agreement and tries to arm itself, we will attack. If it tries to rebuild terrorist infrastructure near the border, we will attack. If it launches a rocket, if it digs a tunnel, if it brings in a truck carrying rockets, we will attack,” Netanyahu said.&nbsp;

The US showed full support to Israel as Biden responded to Netanyahu's statement, saying, "If Hezbollah or anyone else breaks the deal and poses a direct threat to Israel, then Israel retains the right to self-defence consistent with international law."

Israel-Hezbollah Ceasefire Takes Effect: Truce Announcement Follows Strikes, Evacuations

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, on Tuesday (Nov 26) said that he is ready to implement a ceasefire in Lebanon amid the ongoing conflict between Israel and the Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah.

In his address, Netanyahu also said he would&nbsp;present the ceasefire accord to his full cabinet later in the evening.&nbsp;

The ceasefire agreement would put an end to the months-long conflict which has reportedly killed thousands across Lebanon. However, the Israeli PM also warned that Israel would "respond forcefully to any violation" by Hezbollah.

“The length of the ceasefire depends on what happens in Lebanon,” said Netanyahu, in a speech following an hours-long meeting with his security cabinet.&nbsp;

The agreement means Israel can focus on the “Iranian threat,” adding, “we are changing the face of the region,” said the Israeli PM.&nbsp;

Israel and Iran-backed Hezbollah have been at war for several months now, a period that saw the killing of senior Hezbollah leadership including Hassan Nasrallah, the former chief of the group; Fuad Shukr, a top commander; Sami Taleb Abdallah and more.

Hezbollah over the past year launched several attacks on Israel but the tensions escalated after retaliation from the Israel&nbsp;Defense Forces (IDF) earlier this year.&nbsp;

PM Netanyahu has warned the group that Israel will not honour the ceasefire deal with Hezbollah if the Lebanon-based group breaks it. It is understood that the deal has been reached with the help of France and the United States.

Earlier, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said the ceasefire deal being finalised between Israel and Lebanon will boost efforts to secure an end to the war in Gaza.

“One of the things that Hamas has sought from day one is to get others in on the fight, to create multiple fronts… and as long as it thought that was possible, that’s one of the reasons it has held back from doing what is necessary to end the conflict,” Blinken says in remarks to reporters after meeting counterparts at the G7 in Italy. He added, “If it sees that the cavalry is not on the way, that may incentivize it to do what it needs to do to end this conflict.”

He further criticised the proposal for a truce between Israel and Hezbollah, saying that Israel must maintain immediate freedom of action against Hezbollah.&nbsp;

“The idea that we will report to the committee and only then take action is fundamentally flawed, as Hezbollah can burn our intelligence sources and move the means of warfare,” Gantz posted on X.&nbsp;

He added, "It is impossible to speak in terms of a ‘temporary ceasefire.’ Withdrawing forces now will create a dynamic that will make it difficult for us, and make it easier for Hezbollah to regroup."&nbsp;

“We have paid so much — in the blood of our fighters, in the wounded, in the many days, reservists have given to fighting, in budgets and armaments.

“We must not do only half the job. We must not miss the opportunity for a strong agreement that will fundamentally change the situation in the north,” Gantz further wrote.

Israel-Hezbollah War: Lebanon Ceasefire Drawing Closer, May Reach Deal This Week | World News

The Lebanon-based militant group Hezbollah has been using an advanced missile amid its ongoing war with Israel, which was reverse-engineered from an Israeli weapon it captured in a past war, the New York Times reported citing Israeli defence officials.&nbsp;

Reportedly, Hezbollah militants have seized the original Israeli Spike anti-tank missiles during the 2006 Israel-Hezbollah war in Lebanon and transported them to Iran for cloning, Israeli and Western defence officials and weapons experts have reportedly said.&nbsp;

Now, 18 years later, Hezbollah is using the rebranded Almas missiles at Israeli military bases, communication systems, and air-defence launchers.&nbsp;

According to reports, their attempt to fire these missiles was to make it challenging for the Israeli military forces. These missiles have a range of up to 10 miles and they carry advanced guidance seekers to track and lock onto targets.

Iran and its allies forces have cloned weapons systems to use against the very adversaries who created them.&nbsp;

Notably, Iran has reportedly copied American drones and missiles.&nbsp;

Mohammed Al-Basha, a Middle East weapons analyst said that the Almas missile is an example of an increasing use of Iranian-engineered weapons that is "fundamentally altering regional power dynamics".&nbsp;

“What was once a gradual spread of older missile generations has transformed into rapid deployment of cutting-edge technology across active battlefields,” Al-Basha, an analyst who also runs a risk advisory firm based in the US state of&nbsp;Virginia, said last week.

The Israeli defence officials on a condition of anonymity, said that Almas missiles are among Hezbollah weapons stockpiles that the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have captured since the start of their invasion of Lebanon around two months ago.

<h2>What are Almas missiles?</h2>

The Almas means diamond in Arabic and Persian. It is a guided missile that does not need a direct eye-line sight to launch from land vehicles, drones, helicopters, and shoulder-fired tubes.&nbsp;

Moreover, these missiles are so-called top-attack missiles, which means their ballistic trajectory can strike from directly above their targets instead of from the side and hit tanks where they are lightly armoured and vulnerable.&nbsp;
