Several Lebanese news outlets identified the victim as Mohammed Al-Hussayni, a school teacher.Despite the ceasefire, Israel continues to occupy five points within Lebanese territory.The Israeli army has also levelled several villages along the borders and blocked their reconstruction, preventing their residents from returning.Since the end of the war, Lebanon has been forced to accept a de facto one-sided ceasefire, where Israel attacks the country almost daily without any response from the Lebanese side.Hezbollah has been calling on the Lebanese government to intensify its diplomacy and press the sponsors of the ceasefire – the US and France – to pressure Israel to stop its violations.
