The Lebanese Army announced on Tuesday that it deployed its troops in Shamaa town, Tyre district, South Lebanon, after the withdrawal of Israeli occupation forces.

The Army Command posted that the move came in coordination with the United Nations and the withdrawal of the occupation forces followed contacts conducted by the ceasefire monitor committee.

On November 27, 2024, a ceasefire took into effect in implementation of an indirect deal brokered by the United Nations, US, and France and ended a 66-day Israeli war on Lebanon.

The Lebanese military units deployed at the Shamaa site they evacuated just before the war in light of the Zionist groun incursion.

UNIFIL troops had scanned the area to detect unexploded munitions in preparation of the Lebanese Army deployment which precedes the return of the civilians.

The Lebanese Army called on Shamma locals to avoid returning to their town before it allows them to do that in order to shun any Israeli attack on them.

Al-Manar correspondent indicated that the Lebanese occupation forces are still controlling overlooking hills and may attack civilians in several towns as what happened in Khiam and Teir Harfa.
