Mohammad Salima returned home Tuesday to his worried father and siblings who broke down in tears and hugged him.<\/p>\n

The 16-year-old was imprisoned by Israeli forces earlier this year for “throwing stones,” his father Khalil al-Sleimah told NBC News over text messages, and is among the Palestinian children released as part of the prisoners exchange deal between in Hamas and Israel.<\/p>\n

“I told him now he\u2019s safe and calm. Parting for four months was tough,” he said, adding that the family had no clue about his condition since Hamas launched its attacks on Oct 7.<\/p>\n

Even though Salima had returned home, “he is terrified,” his father said.<\/p>\n

Salima was first under three months of house arrest, he said, but a court order later forced his transfer to an Israeli prison. “It was the hardest day of my life,” he said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Cross-border fire between Lebanon, Israel for first time since Hamas truce began<\/h2>\n

The Israeli military said it intercepted an \u201caerial target\u201d that crossed from Lebanon today, in the first instance of cross-border violence in Lebanon and southern Israel since the country brokered a series of temporary truce deals with Hamas on Friday. <\/p>\n

\u201cA short while ago, following the sirens that sounded in the areas of Dovev, Mattat, and Sasa in northern Israel, the IDF Aerial Defense Array successfully intercepted a suspicious aerial target that crossed from Lebanon into Israeli territory,\u201d the IDF said in a statement. <\/p>\n

UNIFIL, the U.N.’s peacekeeping force in northern Lebanon, added to Reuters that Israel retaliated against the launch. <\/p>\n

There were no immediate claims of responsibility within Lebanon. The Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah has been trading fire with Israel for several weeks. Palestinian Islamic Jihad and Hamas have also targeted Israel from within Lebanon since the start of the most recent conflict. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Activist Ahed Tamimi among Palestinians freed by Israel <\/h2>\n

Prominent Palestinian activist Ahed Tamimi was one of those freed by Israel last night.<\/p>\n

Tamimi, 22, has been a prominent activist for Palestinian land rights since childhood. In 2017, she was arrested and imprisoned for eight months for slapping IDF soldiers during a raid of her home village of Nabi Saleh in the occupied West Bank. <\/p>\n

Tamimi was one of hundreds arrested in the West Bank in November on charges of inciting terror. Tamimi’s mother has denied the charges against her daughter, saying they were based on fake social media posts. <\/p>\n
