In early Tuesday airstrikes, Israel killed at least three people and injured seven in Beirut's southern suburbs, raising concerns over the fragile ceasefire with Hezbollah that has lasted four months. The Israeli military claimed the action targeted a Hezbollah official tied to Hamas. Lebanese leaders condemned the strike, with President Joseph Aoun describing it as a premeditated threat against Lebanon. Simultaneously, tensions flared in Gaza with the funerals of medics killed by Israeli forces, further indicating the conflict's escalation amid ongoing hostilities.
The Israeli military stated that it attacked a Hezbollah militant who had recently directed Hamas operatives. This strike occurred just days after a prior attack on Beirut.
Lebanese President Joseph Aoun condemned the attack as a dangerous warning, indicating premeditated intentions against Lebanon amidst a fragile ceasefire with Israel.
Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam labeled the airstrike a clear violation of the ceasefire. This ceasefire had mainly ended over a year of hostilities with Hezbollah.
In southern Gaza, Palestinians mourned 15 medics killed by Israeli troops, asserting that the workers' vehicles were identifiable as medical, accusing Israel of cold-blooded murder.
