The Airstrikes
Hours after Israel launched intense airstrikes in Lebanon aimed at Hezbollah, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu shared a video message for the Lebanese people. In the video, he urged the people to get out of harm’s way. Once Israel’s operation is over, they can come back safely to your homes.
According to Lebanon’s Hezbollah-led Health Ministry, the strike has killed around 490 people and injured over 1,500. According to Lebanese officials, the recent wave of attacks marks the deadliest since the 2006 conflict between Israel and Hezbollah.
Before Netanyahu’s warning to the people of Lebanon, the Israeli military spokesperson R Adm Daniel Hagari, in a televised statement, said, “To all the residents of the villages in Lebanon, in the near future, we will strike terror targets in Lebanon. We call on everyone who is near properties or inside homes where Hezbollah is hiding weapons. We call on you to distance yourselves from them immediately. This is for your safety and protection.”
