Israel-Lebanon Crisis Update: The clash between Israel and Hezbollah is now taking a new and dangerous turn. On Monday (September 23, 2024), Israel , enraged by the attack on the city of Lord Jesus, piled up corpses in Lebanon on Monday (September 23, 2024).
Israel engaged in combat with Hamas, but now it is also destroying Hezbollah. Hezbollah faces punishment for its support of Gaza. The IDF recently launched air strikes in Lebanon, targeting more than 300 Hezbollah targets. Lebanon is experiencing an atmosphere of panic and fear. People are frantically fleeing from their homes.
They are taking shelter in schools with children and the elderly so that they can avoid Israeli attacks.
In fact, Israel, enraged by the attacks from Lebanon on Sunday, started showering bombs and missiles on Lebanon the next day. According to the IDF, on Monday it attacked 1600 Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon and Bekaa.
The Lebanese Health Ministry reports that these Israeli attacks have killed about 500 people so far, including dozens of women and children. Reports indicate that these attacks have injured more than 1645 people. This is the biggest attack targeting Hezbollah in Lebanon since the 2006 war. Arab countries have strongly condemned Israel for the growing hostility with Hezbollah.
On October 7, Hezbollah and other Iran-backed terrorist organizations supported Hamas’ attack on Israel. After that, they became Israel’s targets. Wafa Ismail, a 60-year-old woman from Zawtar, a southern village in Lebanon, said, “We sleep and wake up with bombing. This has become our life.”
Israeli army chief Herzi Halevi said their strikes hit the combat infrastructure Hezbollah had been building for two decades. Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Galant called it “an important peak” in the operation. He said, “This is the most difficult time for Hezbollah since its formation; the result speaks for itself.”
