The Lebanese Army is working to decommission weapons from militant groups like Hezbollah and clear southern Lebanon of unexploded ordnance under a US-led framework agreement between Israel and Lebanon. The mission is taking place in "pilot zones," small pockets of territory previously under Israeli military control. But the mission comes with serious challenges and risks: persistent Israeli airstrikes and unexploded ordnance. CNN's Jeremy Diamond reports on the Lebanese Army unit handling this dangerous mission.
