Israel hits Lebanon after a first rocket attack after cessation of fire

Israel says he attacks Hezbollah’s goals in the southern Lebanon after the missiles were launched from there in Israel for the first, as a deal to end the fire came in November.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said he has instructed Israel’s defense forces to “act against dozens of terrorist goals in Lebanon.”

IDF said three rockets were caught in the Israeli city of Metula on Saturday morning. No injuries have been reported.

No group admitted that she had fired at the rockets, and the Prime Minister of Lebanon warned that he had been dragged against his country “in a new war.” The fire termination deal ended a 14 -month battle with Hezbollah, the Lebanese armed group, supported by Iran.

The UN Mirrors in Lebanon, Unifil, said it was “worried by the possible escalation of violence”, calling on both Israel and Lebanon to “maintain their commitments”.

Local reports in Lebanon said the artillery fire had been fired in some southern places in the country.

The truce is fragile: Israel has committed almost daily air strikes on what he describes as Hezbollah, and said the attacks would continue to prevent the group’s reincarnation.

In addition, the Israeli military still occupy five places in the southern Lebanon, in what the Lebanese government says, is a violation of the sovereignty of the country and a violation of the transaction to terminate the fire, which requires the withdrawal of Israeli troops.

Israel says that the Lebanese military has not yet been fully located in these areas and that it should remain in these points to ensure the security of its border communities.

The Saturday missile attack in Israel will put even more pressure on the Lebanese government and will probably be used as evidence by Israel that the Lebanese army has no complete control over the border areas.

Despite Israel’s constant attacks, Hezbollah did not answer. The group faces the huge challenge of providing financial assistance to their war -affected communities and pressure from his opponents to disarm.

Lebanon President Joseph Aun, who came to power in January, said that only the state should have a weapon in the country in what was regarded as a reference to Hezbollah’s arsenal. International partners in Lebanon say they will only help the country if the government acts to limit the power of Hezbollah.

Hezbollah launched her campaign on the day after Hamas’s attacks against South Israel on October 7, 2023, saying he was acting in solidarity with the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

The long -standing conflict escalates and led to an intense Israeli air campaign in Lebanon, the murder of senior Hezbollah leaders and invading southern Lebanon.

The offensive died about 4,000 people in Lebanon – including many civilians – and led to the displacement of more than 1.2 million inhabitants.

Israel’s stated goal in his war against Hezbollah was to allow the return of about 60,000 inhabitants who were displaced by the northern part of the country because of the group attacks and to remove it from the border areas.
