Israel has launched a series of attacks across Lebanon, resulting in dozens of casualties, including the death of at least 29 people in the town of Younine. The Israeli military claimed to have killed the head of Hezbollah’s aerial unit in Beirut. Meanwhile, Hezbollah retaliated by firing missiles at Israeli territories. Despite international calls for a ceasefire, Israeli officials have indicated that they will continue their offensive in Lebanon.
The United States and France proposed a 21-day ceasefire, but Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected the idea, emphasizing the goal of returning displaced residents to their homes in the north. The recent escalation in violence has displaced more than 90,000 people in Lebanon, with over 600 killed and thousands wounded in the air raids.
The situation between Israel and Hezbollah has escalated significantly, leading to fears of a potential ground assault on Lebanon. Israeli forces have targeted key Hezbollah military figures, including senior commanders of the group’s elite Radwan unit. The killing of these leaders, along with a mass detonation of communication devices, has raised concerns about further violence in the region.
As tensions continue to rise, the possibility of a diplomatic solution remains uncertain. The United States and other world powers are calling for a ceasefire, while Israeli officials are focused on achieving their military objectives in Lebanon. The situation remains volatile, with the potential for further violence and displacement in the region.
