Despite a ceasefire barely a few days old, hostilities in southern Lebanon continue to erupt.

“In the Nabatieh axis, the Israeli army is, according to security sources, trying to occupy more areas,” Al Jazeera’s Zeina Khodr reports from the city. “Israeli drones haven’t left the skies … Israeli officials have made it clear they are not happy with the US-Iran deal that includes a ceasefire in Lebanon.”

Residents like Mohammed Nasser have returned only to check on their properties.

“This is a decades-old conflict with Israel … an enemy that can’t be trusted … and we can never feel safe,” he tells Al Jazeera.

“The Israeli army is trying to occupy positions that it once held during their occupation of southern Lebanon in the 1990s, but the resistance is preventing them from doing so,” resident Hussein Badreddine tells Al Jazeera.
