Hezbollah, the Iran-backed terror group, has claimed responsibility for attacking eight targets in Israel, including Israeli soldiers and a barracks, in support of Hamas.
The Israeli military responded quickly, striking a site in Lebanon that attempted to launch anti-tank missiles into its territory. Artillery strikes have also been directed at other locations. There were no immediate reports of injuries from the airstrikes against Israel, but the situation remains tense and highly volatile.
In early November, Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah declared during a televised speech that the October 7 terrorist attack on Israel carried out by Hamas was “heroic”. He also hinted at Hezbollah’s involvement in the conflict, saying they have been engaged in battle since October 8.
The fight between Israel and Hamas has been going on for almost six weeks, and President Biden has expressed his belief that Israel’s military operation in Gaza will stop when Hamas “no longer maintains the ability to kill, abuse and do horrible things to the Israelis.” .”
While the international community is calling for a diplomatic resolution, the situation on the ground remains critical, with both sides trading strikes and the potential for further escalation looming.
