In less than ten days following the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Lebanon, Hezbollah violated the deal on December 2 by launching two projectiles toward Israel’s Mount Dov. This attack came shortly after President Biden had announced the ceasefire. In retaliation, the Israeli Air Force targeted Hezbollah operatives, dozens of rocket launchers, and other terrorist infrastructure. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) condemned the launch as a breach of the ceasefire, emphasizing their readiness to continue operations to protect Israeli civilians. Prime Minister Netanyahu had previously warned of a "forceful response" to any violations, and this incident could escalate tensions further. Netanyahu also declared that Israel would maintain complete military freedom of action in defending its citizens, especially against what he calls the “Triple H” threats. Over the past months, Israel has dealt significant blows to Hezbollah, including the killing of its leader, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, and other top commanders. The ceasefire agreement stipulated that Israeli forces would withdraw from southern Lebanon, while the Lebanese army would deploy there. In turn, Hezbollah was expected to pull back its armed presence south of the Litani River.
