UN spokesperson Stephane Dujarric says that Sunday marked the first day that UN peacekeepers in southern Lebanon “did not detect any trajectories or observe any interceptions” since fighting began between Israel and Hezbollah on March 2, Al Jazeera reports.

The “lack of activities” continued into Monday morning, Dujarric told reporters in New York.

“We welcome this reduction in hostilities, and we very much hope this trend continues for the sake of people on the ground,” he said.
