Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu affirmed his country’s objectives following an airstrike on the southern suburbs of Beirut, stating that their goals are clear and their actions speak for themselves. The attack targeted Hezbollah’s stronghold in Dahieh, Lebanon, resulting in 14 deaths and 66 injuries.
The Israeli military claimed to have killed Ibrahim Aqil, Hezbollah’s chief of operations, in the drone strike. This incident follows a series of explosions in Lebanon that left 37 dead and over 3,250 injured. Both the Lebanese government and Hezbollah have accused Israel of the attacks, with Hezbollah vowing revenge.
The escalating conflict has intensified Israel’s cross-border war with Hezbollah, sparked by Israel’s offensive in Gaza that has claimed over 41,300 lives, mostly women and children. Netanyahu has not commented on the allegations, but tensions continue to rise in the region.
As the situation unfolds, it is crucial to monitor the developments and understand the implications of these recent events on the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East.
