Attacks continue despite framework agreement

Lebanon and Israel signed a U.S.-mediated framework agreement in Washington on June 26. The agreement calls for the gradual withdrawal of Israeli forces from Lebanese territory and the deployment of the Lebanese army in the areas vacated.

Israeli forces have continued their attacks in Lebanon despite the agreement and have retained control over parts of the country. These areas include territories held for a long time, as well as locations seized during more recent military operations.
