Macron says Lebanon-Israel ceasefire 'may already be undermined'

French President Emmanuel Macron on Friday said he was concerned that a ceasefire between militant group Hezbollah and Israel "may already be undermined by ongoing military operations."

"I call for the safety of civilians on both sides of the border between Lebanon and Israel," he said on X. "Hezbollah must lay down its arms. Israel must respect Lebanese sovereignty and end the war," he added.

A 10-day ceasefire agreed between Israel and Lebanon took effect at midnight local time (2100 GMT Thursday).
