A ceasefire following more than a year of fighting between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon has come into effect. It began at 04:00 local time (02:00 GMT) on Wednesday, putting an at-least temporary end to nearly 14 months of fighting between Israel and the Iran-backed militant group.

Israel launched an offensive in Lebanon in mid-September following months of tit-for-tat border attacks sparked by Hamas' Oct. 7 attack.
