Israel has warned on Sunday that its ceasefire agreement with Hezbollah could collapse if the Iran-backed group does not withdraw beyond the Litani River, one of the key stipulations of the truce.

A fragile ceasefire between Israel and the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah has held up for over a month, even as its terms seem unlikely to be met by the agreed-upon deadline. The deal struck on Nov.

Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz has warned that the ceasefire with the Lebanese Hezbollah militia is in danger, according to a report by the Times of Israel. Israel will be "forced to act" if Hezbollah fighters do not withdraw from southern Lebanon as mandated by the ceasefire agreement,
