Israel ne Sunday subah Southern Lebanon per airstrikes kiya, kehkar ye ek pre-emptive strike tha Hezbollah ke khilaf, jo pichle mahine apne commander ki maut ka badla lene ke liye rockets aur drones launch kar raha tha. Heavy exchange of fire ne all-out war ka khatra paida kar diya hai, jo America, Iran, aur region ke militant groups ko bhi shamil kar sakta hai.
Israeli military ne kaha Hezbollah ne heavy barrage of rockets aur missiles launch karne ka plan banaya tha. Iske baad Hezbollah ne Israeli military positions per apne initial response mein attack kiya, jo commander Fouad Shukur ki Beirut mein Israeli airstrike mein maut ka badla tha.
Egypt ne Gaza mein ceasefire ke liye talks host ki hain, lekin Hezbollah kehte hain jab tak Gaza mein ceasefire nahi hota, unka fight continue rahega. Iran dono groups ko support karta hai, aur agar ye conflict escalate hota hai toh Syria, Iraq aur Yemen ke militants bhi shamil ho sakte hain.
Air raid sirens puri Northern Israel mein suni gayi, aur Israel ka Ben-Gurion international airport flights ko temporarily divert kar raha tha. Lebanon mein strikes ke baad ek shaks ke marne ki khabar aayi hai aur multiple locations per strikes report hui hain.
Hezbollah ne over 320 Katyusha rockets
aur drones se Israel ke multiple sites ko target kiya, jo operation ka pehla phase tha. Israeli military ne 100 aircrafts se strikes ki, lekin “very little damage” ki report hai.
US ne kaha President Biden ne closely monitor kiya aur Israel ke right to self-defense ka support diya. Pentagon bhi Israel ke defense ke liye committed hai agar conflict escalate hota hai.
