What happened: Following a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah, residents of Khiam in southern Lebanon are starting to return to their homes. BBC Arabic correspondent Carine Torbey reports from the area as calm begins to return.

Why it matters:

  • The ceasefire allows displaced residents to safely return and assess damage.
