Lebanon and Syria have agreed to a ceasefire after two days of clashes along the border. The fighting began after Syria accused Hezbollah militants of crossing the border. Lebanon's president ordered troops to retaliate, resulting in the death of seven Lebanese citizens and the injury of 52 others. The most serious cross-border fighting since the ouster of former Syrian President Bashar Assad in December, the clashes involved local clans in the border region that are not directly affiliated with Hezbollah. The agreement between Lebanon and Syria also includes enhanced coordination and cooperation between the two sides.
