I note 6 more Hesbollah were killed after the 8am deadline. Apparently they were approaching IDF forces in a threatening manner. Elsewhere, many lebanese are returning home and some Israeli forces heading back too.
I think UN will send fewer troops, and more slowly than promised. I think both sides will largely stick to the ceasefire. How long will UN troops have to remain in South Leb though?


Heres the final death toll.

166 Israelis killed - 114 IDF soldiers and 52 civilians.

Lebanon : 791 people killed since July 12. 530 were Hizbullah guerillas.

+ 6 more after the ceasefire.
