Israeli naval forces have reportedly detained a Lebanese fisherman off the coast of Naqoura in southern Lebanon as they continue to operate in the area despite the ceasefire, Al Jazeera reports.

The detained individual was fishing on a boat with his brother when an Israeli boat approached and arrested him, according to the National News Agency of Lebanon, which did not provide further details.

The Israeli military earlier today said it is “redeploying” in areas across southern Lebanon, and again warned Lebanese citizens against returning to their homes.
