Lebanon’s parliament has renewed the term of army chief Joseph Aoun, who is seen as a potential presidential candidate in next year’s vote

The cease-fire deal is set to stop fighting for 60 days between Israel and Hezbollah. Regional neighbors hope it will lead to a wider de-escalation.

The Israeli army said it had fired at suspects after spotting activity at a Hezbollah weapons facility, and vehicles arriving in several areas that breached the terms of the ceasefire deal. Lebanon accused Israel of violating the agreement “multiple times” and said it was monitoring the situation.
