Israel has accused Hezbollah of a "flagrant violation" of the ceasefire reached with Lebanon.

A 10-day pause was intended to halt fighting between Israel and Hezbollah - the Iran-backed militant group that controls parts of Lebanon - but both sides have been accused of breaking it.

This afternoon, Israel said:

"The terrorist organization Hezbollah launched a hostile aircraft towards Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers operating in the southern Lebanese area. The aircraft was intercepted by the Israeli Air Force and did not cross into Israeli territory."

He added that this constituted a "flagrant violation" of the ceasefire agreement.

Envoys from Israel and Lebanon will meet tomorrow in the US.
