Hezbollah ready to respond to Israeli ceasefire violations

Hezbollah is prepared to respond to Israeli breaking of the Lebanon ceasefire before the expiry of a 60-day deadline for Israel to withdraw, leader Naim Qassem said. The truce, which took effect on November 27, has been marked by accusations from both sides. “We have said that we are giving an opportunity to prevent Israeli violations and to implement the agreement and we will exercise patience,” Mr Qassem said.
