Al Mayadeen’s cameras documented the historic return of forcibly displaced residents from South Lebanon, the Bekaa Valley, and the Southern Suburb of Beirut, as they made their way back to their homes and villages. This significant movement began Wednesday morning, following the implementation of the ceasefire.

The scenes depicted a powerful image of resilience and recovery, as families returned to areas that had long been under Israeli aggression.

The footage highlighted both the emotional and symbolic significance of the return, as Lebanese people hailed the Resistance and celebrated victory, while also mourning their martyred leader, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah.

In interviews for Al Mayadeen's correspondents, returning Lebanese citizens expressed pride in their resilience, declaring, "We triumphed through our determination, steadfastness, and Resistance."

They highlighted that while settlers have not returned to the northern settlements, the people of the South, Bekaa, and Southern Suburb are now making their way back. "The enemy bet on schism and civil war, but it has failed," they added, referring to the unity exhibited by most of the Lebanese people from all sects and factions by embracing the displaced.

Many also vowed to ensure that the legacy of their struggle endures, declaring, "We will pass this victory on to our grandchildren," highlighting their commitment to preserving the triumph for future generations.

Lebanese citizens told Al Mayadeen, "Today, we are celebrating a national triumph," as they expressed pride in the collective achievement. They emphasized that the victory was made possible "thanks to the brave men of the Resistance," acknowledging the crucial role played by the Resistance fighters in securing their victory.
