Lebanon’s army shortly later urged residents against heading to border areas where its forces had not completed deployment.
“Three citizens were kidnapped by Israeli forces in the town,“ the NNA added, after earlier reporting that residents had entered by passing a Lebanese army checkpoint and “dirt barriers set up by the Israeli army”.
Under the deal, Lebanon’s military was to deploy in the south alongside United Nations peacekeepers as the Israeli army withdrew over a 60-day period.
The withdrawal period was extended to February 18, after Israel missed the initial deadline.
When the initial ceasefire deadline expired in late January, Lebanese authorities said Israeli fire killed 26 people in two days as residents tried to return to border villages.
It pointed to “the danger of unexploded ordnance left by the Israeli enemy, as well as the possibility of the presence of enemy forces in those areas”.
On Saturday, the NNA said an Israeli strike on a vehicle in the south’s Lebanon’s Iqlim al-Tuffah area killed two people. The Israeli army said it targeted a senior militant from Hezbollah’s aerial unit.
The same day, Lebanon’s parliamentary speaker Nabih Berri said the United States had informed him that, while Israel would withdraw on February 18, “it will remain in five locations”.
Lebanese officials have rejected the demand.
