Hezbollah chief Naim Qassem has demanded a comprehensive ceasefire and the withdrawal of Israeli troops from Lebanon, urging Lebanese authorities to abandon direct talks with Israel after a truce agreement was announced.

Prominent Hezbollah MP Hassan Fadlallah says the group supports a “full ceasefire on all Lebanese territory”.

Hezbollah will not accept a "partial ceasefire" with Israel, a senior official from the group said Tuesday.
