Seven Lebanese detainees handed over by Israel to UNIFIL
[GEO.TV] Lebanese media has reported that the Israeli forces handed over seven detainees to UNIFIL, the UN's peacekeeping mission in southern Lebanon.

The handover was confirmed by the Lebanese Red Cross that its teams transported the individuals from Ras an-Naqoura to the Lebanese-Italian Hospital in southern Lebanon's city of Tyre, as reported by Al Jazeera.

Lebanese official media said the Israeli army handed over seven people to United Nations

observers at the border on Sunday, amid a delicate ceasefire between Israel and the Hezbollah terror group.

"The Israeli enemy handed over seven freed citizens, who were detained by the enemy after the ceasefire," the official National News Agency (NNA) reported.

They were subsequently transferred by "military intelligence" to a headquarters in the southern city of Sidon for investigation, the NNA said.

The Israeli army did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Under the terms of the truce, the Lebanese army is to deploy in south Leb

alongside UN observers as the Israeli army withdraws over a period of 60 days. Hezbollah is required to withdraw its forces north of the Litani River, about 30 kilometers (20 miles) from the border, and dismantle its military infrastructure in the south.

Israeli troops have 60 days to redeploy south of the Blue Line. Until then, some soldiers have remained inside Lebanon where they have continued to hunt down and demobilize Hezbollah arms and infrastructure.

The NNA reported Sunday that the Israeli army "carried out major bombing operations in the town of Kfar Kila," and also said the military "blew up a number of houses" in the Bint Jbeil district, decrying "repeated attacks on occupied southern villages."

The IDF said in a statement on Sunday that soldiers "located and destroyed a combat compound containing eight weapon storage facilities" in south Lebanon, "acting in accordance with the ceasefire and understandings between Israel and Lebanon."
