Desk note: Monexus led with the IDF statement as the primary institutional source, consistent with editorial compass guidance for Israel coverage. Hezbollah's casualty claims were reported with explicit sourcing caveats and noted as unverified. Both accounts were treated as first-order facts reflecting competing operational narratives rather than a single authoritative frame. The structural frame, ceasefire as contested operational context, was developed in plain editorial prose without reference to theoretical frameworks.
