AP At least two people were killed on Monday in Israeli strikes on southern Lebanon, while the speaker of Lebanon’s parliament accused Israel of violating the recent ceasefire agreement 54 times. “Israel’s actions represent a clear violation of the articles of the ceasefire agreement and they have exceeded 54 violations in Lebanon,” said Lebanon’s speaker of parliament Nabih Berri, who has acted on behalf of Hezbollah during ceasefire negotiations, in a statement on social media. Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar denied that his country had breached the accord, saying the problem lay with Hezbollah moving weapons and crossing south of the Litani river, in defiance of last week’s deal.
