Israeli military jets hit Beirutʼs southern area with five air-strikes on nov 12th — just hours after posting social-media warnings to locals about nearby Hezbollah spots. Most people left these spots back in sept‚ when bombing started; no one got hurt this time
The conflict near Lebanon-Israel line got way bigger since last fall. Northern Israel heard air-raid alarms today‚ with some stuff flying from Lebanon (but nobody got hit). Israel Katz‚ the new defense chief met army leaders and made things clear: “We wont stop until Hezbollah moves past Litani river; our north folks need to get back home safe“
Foreign minister Gideon Saar talked about some good news in peace talks; however he pointed out that making sure everyone follows the rules would be hard. The Lebanese side (which has Hezbollah in its govt) wants to use an 18-year old UN deal as base for stopping fights
- More than 1 million Lebanese left homes since sept
- Around 3‚200 deaths happened in Lebanon this year
- Israeli side lost about 100 people total
- Both sides keep saying other one breaks old UN rules
The whole thing started getting real messy in sept‚ when Israel decided to hit many spots in Lebanon — they went after Hezbollah leaders and messed up parts of south Beirut (which is like their main spot)
