A ceasefire has been established between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon, offering much-needed relief to the Lebanese people after weeks of airstrikes and displacement. While this eases tensions on one front of the broader Middle East conflict, the situation in Gaza remains dire, and tensions with Iran and Syria persist. In a notable move, Hezbollah has agreed to reposition its forces north of the Litani River, stepping back from its previous justification for involvement. The success of this ceasefire will depend on an international monitoring committee, but its long-term viability is uncertain given the region's complex dynamics and ongoing hostilities.
