Six months after the ceasefire, Israel reorganizes its forces on the border with Lebanon.

The Israeli military revealed that it is reorganizing its forces on the Lebanese border, six months after a ceasefire ended the fighting between Israel and Hezbollah, according to The Times of Israel.

The 146th Reserve Division, which had been responsible for the western part of the border with Lebanon since the beginning of the war, withdrew, and in its place, the 91st Galilee Territorial Division assumed responsibility for the entire border, from Ras al-Naqoura to Mount Dov, but not including it.

The actual number of troops on the Lebanese border, which is three times the pre-war number, will remain roughly the same even after the demobilization of the 146th Division, which will be placed under the command of the 91st Division.

The 91st Division also forms a third territorial brigade tasked with the central border area, in addition to the 300 Baram Brigade in the west and the 769 Hiram Brigade in the east.

The unnamed Central Regional Brigade currently operates under the command of the division's 8th Reserve Armored Brigade.

During the ongoing ceasefire in Lebanon, the Israeli military continued to bomb Hezbollah elements and sites.

Since the ceasefire began, the Israeli military has announced that it has killed more than 180 Hezbollah members, including 38 senior commanders and 28 lower-ranking officers.

The Israeli occupation army remains deployed in five strategic locations hundreds of meters inside southern Lebanon.
