Israel hits back after coordinated Iran-Hezbollah missile, drone strikes, urges Beirut to rein in terrorists
AI Summary
Hezbollah, backed by Iran, launched approximately 200 missiles and drones into Israel, prompting retaliatory strikes by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) against Hezbollah strongholds in Beirut suburbs. Hezbollah claimed responsibility for the attacks, codenamed "Eaten Straw," targeting Israeli military sites. The IDF stated it would not tolerate harm to Israeli civilians and would respond forcefully to any threats. Tensions have been rising as Hezbollah rearms and resists US-backed ceasefire efforts. Israel's U.N. Ambassador urged Lebanon to restrain Hezbollah or face Israeli action to dismantle the organization. The Lebanese government has expressed interest in direct talks with Israel, but an Israeli official claimed Beirut was not affecting Hezbollah’s behavior.
