0:00I'm Ben Thomas with an AP News Minute. Calm has settled over parts of Lebanon as a 10-day ceasefire takes hold between Israel and Hezbollah. Isabel Debrae reports from the country's south. We are here in the village of Gypset. Now, there's a lot of uncertainty about what this ceasefire will actually look like, and through a lot of distrust about whether it can last. And as a result, we're only seeing a trickle of families start to return to the homes that they've led amid Israel's six-week bombardment in ground invasion of the country. The residents who were displaced for the past weeks tell us that whatever joy or relief they feel at coming home is being tempered by the scale of devastation that is confronting them. This is the village mosque that was destroyed a couple of weeks ago in an Israeli strike. And all over, apartment blocks and shops have been turned to rubble by this latest war between Israel and Hezbollah. That's the AP's Isabel Debrae reporting from southern Lebanon and on Ben Thomas.
