As the ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah comes into effect, Niall Paterson speaks with Sky’s Jeehad Jneid who reports from southern Lebanon as millions attempt to return to their homes. The day after the 7 October attacks, Hezbollah began to launch rocket strikes into Israel in a show of support for Hamas. Israeli has carried out retaliatory strikes on Hezbollah targets in Lebanon since then, and tensions escalated earlier this year following a strike on Israeli-occupied Golan Heights. In this episode we ask what life has been like for Lebanese citizens in the year that followed, and whether the ceasefire can hold. Podcast Producer: Tom Pooley Editor: Philly Beaumont
