The war that has been going on for more than a year between Hezbollah and Israel has stopped. The ceasefire came into effect from Wednesday. Now Hezbollah will withdraw its fighters from southern Lebanon, while Israeli troops will also withdraw. Find out which UN resolutions can be used to do this. And can there be a ceasefire in Gaza after this?
The ceasefire between Israel and Lebanese terrorist group Hezbollah continues since Wednesday morning. The special thing about this peace under the UNSC resolution is that the ceasefire is only for 60 days. During this time, both the sides will try for peace from their side. But could the Middle East turn bloody again once this time is over? On October 7 last year, the extremist group Hamas killed thousands of Israeli civilians and abducted more than 250 others in an attack. After such actions of this group settled in Gaza, Israel also attacked and its spark spread to the Middle East. It also included the Lebanese extremist group Hezbollah, which supports the ideology of Hamas. Hamas and Israel are still unofficially at war, but there is a two-month ceasefire between Hezbollah and Israel.
Ceasefire based on UNSC Resolution 1701
The ceasefire is based on United Nations Security Council (UNSC) Resolution 1701. The UNSC brought this resolution in 2006 with the sole purpose of reducing tensions between Hezbollah and Israel. Apart from this, it also talks about permanent ceasefire in the buffer zone. This was the year that Hezbollah killed three Israeli soldiers and kidnapped two. Angered by this, Israel occupied southern Lebanon to weaken the extremist group.
Let us tell you that the headquarters of Hezbollah is in the southern part. Both have now been asked to withdraw and Lebanese forces will remain in place to ensure full implementation of the ceasefire. Although this is not allowed during the ceasefire, Israel can make such a proposal according to the terms of the ceasefire. This is reflected in the fact that amid the announcement of ceasefire, Israel attacked the Lebanon-Syria border for the first time.
Is a ceasefire possible in Gaza also or..?
Israel has made it clear that it will continue the attack until the hostages are released unconditionally. Given the massive humanitarian crisis in Gaza, several major countries, including those in the Middle East, have attempted mediation, but neither side has shown any flexibility.
