The first installment of the pullout calls for the Israelis to leave the northwestern sector of occupied territory, around the city of Sidon and along the Awali River, within five weeks. The troops will redeploy from their current lines about 25 miles inside Lebanon to a point between the Zahrani and Litani rivers, anywhere from seven to 20 miles to the south.
