Fighting persists in Lebanon despite a ceasefire as the US-Iran deal is under threat

Israeli strikes in southern Lebanon killed at least seven people, including two children, hours after reports of a U.S.-Iran ceasefire agreement emerged. Ongoing fighting between Israel and Hezbollah threatens the interim deal, which aims to halt military operations and reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Mediators, including Qatar, the U.S., and Iran, are working to stop the clashes, but delays in U.S.-Iran talks in Switzerland highlight the fragility of the agreement.
