Hezbollah's ceasefire spin: A master class in turning defeat into victory
The ink on the Lebanon-Israel ceasefire had barely dried when Hezbollah's leader Sheikh Naim Kassem took to the airwaves, not to welcome peace, but to claim triumph.

An Israeli strike on the southern Lebanese city of Sidon killed 11 people and wounded four others, the Lebanese Health Ministry said on Tuesday.
The Israeli military said that it struck militants whom it said were operating in a training compound in the crowded Ain al-Hilweh Palestinian refugee camp near Sidon.
The military said the compound has been used by the Palestinian movement Hamas to carry out attacks against Israel.
There was no immediate comment from Hamas on the strike.

The ink on the Lebanon-Israel ceasefire had barely dried when Hezbollah's leader Sheikh Naim Kassem took to the airwaves, not to welcome peace, but to claim triumph.
A French soldier was killed and three others wounded while clearing a road in southern Lebanon in an attack that UNIFIL peacekeepers and French officials said on Saturday was likely carried out by Iran-backed Hezbollah.
The Israeli army announced Saturday the establishment of a "yellow line" of demarcation in southern Lebanon, mirroring a similar boundary drawn in Gaza.
