Families traveled in vehicle convoys and waited to reach towns and villages in southern Lebanon amid heavy traffic on major routes. Residents speaking to Anadolu said they were eager to return to their villages despite the widespread destruction, while also voicing concerns about security and the ceasefire. Regional tensions have escalated since late February following US and Israeli airstrikes on Iran, which Tehran says killed more than 3,000 people. Iran responded with strikes on Gulf countries and Israel, as well as restrictions on passage through the Strait of Hormuz. Washington and Tehran reached a temporary truce on April 8 through Pakistani mediation before announcing a framework agreement to end the conflict. The accord is expected to be formally signed in Switzerland on July 19. Israel has been carrying out an offensive on Lebanon since March 2 that has left thousands killed and wounded and more than 1 million displaced, according to official figures.
