On the morning of January 26, 2025, unarmed displaced Lebanese civilians from southern villages, returned home from the north after Israel Defense Forces refused to leave the occupied areas in southern Lebanon. Israeli troops had to leave the occupied areas as per the agreed ceasefire with Hezbollah, which lasted for 60 days. Israeli troops opened fire on civilians, killing at least 26 people and wounding about 147 others.[2] Gunfire also erupted at soldiers of the Lebanese Army, resulting in the killing of a soldier and the wounding of others.[3]
