Ceasefire in Lebanon gets longer
178
Israel and Lebanon agree. The ceasefire lasts 45 more days. The USA helped with the talks. But the weapons do not stop. Israel attacks targets in the south of Lebanon. At least 6 people die. 3 medics are among the dead. Israel says: We attack the group Hezbollah. Hezbollah also attacks Israel with drones.
The government of Lebanon wants peace. But Hezbollah ignores the rules. The state of Lebanon has a weak army. It cannot fight against Hezbollah. Otherwise a civil war might start. A civil war is a fight between groups in one country. The USA puts pressure on Israel and Lebanon. They want to show: We work on a solution for the war.
There is much damage in the south of Lebanon. Many houses and olive groves are broken. People must flee from their villages. Since March, almost 2,900 people died in Lebanon. Many women and children are among them. There are new talks at the end of May. Then Israel and Lebanon want to talk about real peace. Until then, the situation is very dangerous.
