The Prime Minister's Office said today (Wednesday) that the Prime Minister and the Defense Minister have both instructed the IDF to not allow civilians to enter the villages near the border, in accordance with the first stage of the ceasefire.
The IDF has already arrested four Hezbollah activists trying to enter this area, and the PMO reiterated that Israel would respond "with a hard hand" against any violation of the ceasefire.
Meanwhile, IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi said that the enforcement of the ceasefire will be even more determined than the fighting before it.
