Honestly machang, I saw that too — so confusing right? Turns out they launched a new wave of airstrikes on southern Lebanon, targeting what they called Hezbollah positions, all while saying the ceasefire was still "in place." My friend in Beirut told me people are super frustrated because they feel the ceasefire was just for show from the start. _(In plain English: I saw that news too — it's really confusing. Apparently they launched new airstrikes in southern Lebanon, targeting Hezbollah positions, even though they claimed the ceasefire was still active. A friend in Beirut told me people are very upset because they feel the ceasefire was never genuine.)_

Ah bro, that’s a hot topic right now. I read in the news that Israel launched new airstrikes on southern Lebanon saying it was targeting Hezbollah activities, even though there was supposed to be a ceasefire in place. From what I understand, they claim the other side violated the truce first, so they responded. Honestly machang, this whole situation is messy, and it's hard to know who to trust.
