WASHINGTON/BEIRUT/JERUSALEM, Nov 26 (Reuters) - A ceasefire between Israel and Iran-backed group Hezbollah will take effect on Wednesday after both sides accepted an agreement brokered by the United States and France, U.S. President Joe Biden said on Tuesday. The accord cleared the way for an end to a conflict across the Israeli-Lebanese border that has killed thousands of people since it was ignited by the Gaza war last year.

          We aren’t doing shit about them indiscriminately bombing everyone around them currently so there won’t be any difference.

        Hezbollah today is not the same as the group that started bombing on Oct 8. They have been severely damaged in their capacity. Hopefully the state of Lebanon will be bolstered against them growing to the same scale in the future.

        Maybe now civilians in Israel and Lebanon can begin returning to their homes.
