More than 640,000 displaced people in Lebanon have returned home, AFP reports citing the International Organisation for Migration (IOM), as clashes between Hezbollah and Israel have wound down following a deal to end the Middle East war.

Lebanese authorities say Israeli attacks have killed roughly 4,300 people and displaced over one million, particularly from southern Lebanon and Beirut’s southern suburbs.

In a report yesterday, the IOM said “646,107 IDPs (internally displaced persons) have begun returning to their communities,” while about 500,000 other people remain displaced, based on data collected in coordination with local authorities since June 22.
