Israel is set to miss the Tuesday deadline for its withdrawal from Lebanon, as established in last November’s ceasefire agreement, with its military announcing on Monday it would remain in five “strategic” locations within Lebanese borders. Newly-elected Lebanese President Joseph Aoun said his government was working to achieve a full Israeli withdrawal “diplomatically”, while an estimated 100,000 people remain internally displaced in the country.
