What is the current situation regarding Israeli forces in Lebanon and how are Lebanese leaders responding?
Israeli forces have partially withdrawn from several border villages in southeast Lebanon including Odaise, Kafar, Kila, Mas Al Jabbar, Merkabah, and Hula. However, the withdrawal is incomplete, with Israeli troops reportedly remaining in five locations. Lebanese leaders, including President Joseph Ohne, are pressing for a complete withdrawal, describing the continuing presence as occupation. The Lebanese government is coordinating with US and France as truce brokers to facilitate a full Israeli pullout. Both the UN and Lebanon have declared the incomplete withdrawal a violation of UN Security Council resolutions, with Lebanon planning to petition the UNSC to compel Israel to completely withdraw.
