Ceasefire Between Israel and Hezbollah

A ceasefire has been established between Israel and Hezbollah, ending 14 months of conflict following the October 7th attacks on Israeli civilians. President Biden announced the cessation of hostilities, which will take effect at 9 a.m. East Coast time. This agreement aimed to address the Iranian threat, allow Israeli forces to regroup, and separate Hamas from the Northern Front. The ceasefire requires Hezbollah to withdraw its forces 20 miles north of the Israeli border, while some Israeli troops will also pull back from southern Lebanon, with compliance overseen by a five-country committee led by the U.S.
