A small number of families have begun returning to villages in southern Lebanon this week as part of a U.S.-brokered "pilot zones" agreement. Under the terms of this deal, Israel has agreed to withdraw forces from specific areas, allowing residents to re-enter their communities to assess damages and recover personal belongings from their homes.

While some residents have returned to survey the debris, reports from the region indicate that military activity remains ongoing. Lebanon’s National News Agency has documented Israeli detonations and home demolitions in the southern city of Tyre, specifically within the town of al-Mansouri. Additionally, Israeli drones continue to be observed operating over various towns and villages in the area.
