BEIRUT/JERUSALEM - Lebanon announced a partial ceasefire between Hezbollah and Israel on Monday in what would amount to a limited de-escalation of a conflict that has killed thousands of people and inflamed the broader U.S.-Israeli war with Iran. 
According to Lebanon’s embassy in Washington, the agreement would not end the ​conflict in that country. 
But it calls for Israel to refrain from strikes on Beirut and its suburbs controlled by Hezbollah, while ‌the ‌Iran-aligned group would halt its attacks on Israel. 
Hostilities in southern Lebanon, which Israel invaded in March, continued on ​Monday evening. 
Early on Tuesday, the Israeli military said that it intercepted two projectiles that crossed from Lebanon into northern Israel, and that no injuries were reported.
