The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) are enforcing the ceasefire in Lebanon by striking Hezbollah forces violating its terms, while France has accused Israel of ceasefire violations, according to diplomatic sources. The IDF remains deployed in southern Lebanon and has until late January to withdraw under the ceasefire deal. Israeli jets launched an airstrike over a southern Lebanese border village, and troops shelled other border towns and villages still under Israeli control. The IDF also reported an incident where soldiers killed armed Hezbollah operatives close to a church in southern Lebanon and discovered a tunnel shaft used to store weapons. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated that Israel is enforcing the ceasefire agreement and will continue to respond to violations. Lebanon's caretaker Prime Minister and the Lebanese military have accused Israel of violating the agreement with daily airstrikes and overflights since the ceasefire went into effect.
