Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared that Israel would take "whatever action is necessary" to counter Hezbollah's growing threat. In response, Hezbollah's deputy leader warned that the conflict had entered "a new stage." This heightened rhetoric has raised concerns about a broader regional conflict.
Over the weekend, Israel launched an airstrike in Beirut, killing several senior Hezbollah officials, including a top commander. Lebanese officials reported at least 45 fatalities, including women and children. In retaliation, Hezbollah fired more than 100 rockets, missiles, and drones into Israel, targeting areas near Haifa but sparing the country's center.
