Will the US-brokered ceasefire in Lebanon hold?
Briefly

The ceasefire marks a pivotal point, ending a brutal conflict that has devastated Lebanon, with a staggering death toll of over 3,800 and displacement affecting more than a million people.
Lebanon's prime minister has described this period as the 'cruellest phase' in the country’s history, emphasizing the immense human toll and economic losses amounting to an estimated $8.5 billion.
There are significant concerns regarding the capability of the underfunded Lebanese army to enforce the agreement, raising questions about stability and the potential for renewed violence after the withdrawal of troops.
As the ceasefire takes effect, observers are cautiously optimistic; however, they remain vigilant about the next 60 days, which will be crucial for maintaining peace and security in southern Lebanon.
