BEIRUT — The Israeli military on Thursday said its warplanes fired on southern Lebanon after detecting Hezbollah activity at a rocket storage facility, the first Israeli airstrike a day after a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah took hold.

Both Israel and Hezbollah on Thursday accused each other of violating a ceasefire deal agreed on the day before to end more than a year of fighting. Israel said it opened fire on ”suspects″ with vehicles arriving at areas in the southern zone of Lebanon,

The Israeli military said its air force struck a facility used by Hezbollah to store mid-range rockets in southern Lebanon on Thursday, after both sides accused each other of breaching a ceasefire that aims to halt over a year of fighting.

In what might be his final achievement as president, Joe Biden, his diplomats, and their French counterparts have brokered a ceasefire in the increasingly brutal yearlong war between Israel and Hezbollah’s Islamist militia in Lebanon.

They agree to a ceasefire in one place and not in the other? Have mercy on the children, the elderly and the women.”

Major stock markets in the Gulf ended higher on Thursday following Israel's agreement to a ceasefire deal with Lebanon's Hezbollah group under a deal brokered by the U.S. and France.

The ceasefire deal in effect could end more than a year of cross-border fighting between Israel and Lebanon's Hezbollah militant group.

Tehran reserves the right to react Israeli airstrikes last month on Iran but also bears in mind other developments in the region, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on Wednesday. Araghchi told reporters during a trip to Lisbon that Iran welcomed Tuesday's ceasefire agreement in Lebanon and hoped it could lead to a permanent ceasefire.

The ceasefire agreed between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon is good news not just because it promises to bring the terrible bloodshed of the past few months to an end. It also represents a major setback for Iran,
