Israel claims five rockets were fired from #Lebanon into the north & blames #Hezbollah. It’s being labeled the first major breach since the ceasefire agreement—but that framing is dishonest. Israel never honored the agreement in the first place.
Since the ceasefire was signed in late November 2024, #Israel has carried out hundreds of violations in Lebanon. By the end of December, over 1300 breaches were reported—airstrikes, assassinations, airspace violations, & ground incursions. By January, there were over 600 confirmed attacks, leaving dozens dead or wounded.
And despite the agreement, while Israel technically withdrew, it continues to occupy five strategic points inside Lebanese territory. That’s aside from its repeated violations. So even the basic terms of the deal have been ignored.
Even if Hezbollah was behind these rockets, surely it has the right to respond to Israel’s blatant disregard for international law & its ongoing violations of the UN-backed deal with Lebanon. Israel has acted with impunity, pushing the limits while expecting no consequences.
This isn’t a new outbreak of violence. It’s a continuation of the same pattern: Israel provokes, escalates, & then plays the victim. That narrative needs to be challenged.
