Israel said its military had been instructed to use "full force" against imminent threats in Lebanon despite a truce there and vowed to level homes allegedly used by Hezbollah, with state media reporting demolitions were under way on Sunday. While some displaced south Lebanon residents have rushed back to their homes, many are hesitant to return, uncertain about the durability of the 10-day truce, which came into effect on Friday and halted weeks of fighting between Israel and Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah. In the village of Dibbine, an Agence France-Presse correspondent saw a man inspecting damage to his home and people walking near the rubble of destroyed buildings. In Srifa, another correspondent saw people unloading belongings including mattresses and a washing machine as they returned to the southern village. Elsewhere, people were seen travelling away from the south after retrieving belongings from their homes.
