The conflict between Israel and Lebanon has escalated significantly, with a series of Israeli airstrikes targeting Hezbollah sites and civilians. The Israeli military has called on residents of southern Lebanon to evacuate their homes, but there has been no immediate exodus. The strikes have resulted in a high number of casualties, with reports indicating that at least 274 people have been killed, including 21 children and 39 women. The Lebanese Health Ministry has confirmed that over 400 people have been wounded.

    1. Any further escalation of this dangerous situation could have far-reaching and devastating consequences, not only for those living on both sides of the Blue line, but also for the broader region.

    1. He understands very well that full destruction of the Lebanese capital isn't something he'll be able to explain to the Lebanese people.
    2. It is imperative that all institutions responsible for maintaining international peace and security, especially the UN security council, as well as the international community, take the necessary measures without delay.
    3. He's trying to maneuver between two conflicting needs: staying out of a total war and responding to the very successful attacks in Lebanon.

    1. Hezbollah stores its strategic weaponry in civilian buildings and uses the population as human shields.
    2. We are preparing for a large-scale and targeted strike in Bekaa Valley.
    3. The houses in Bekaa have rockets and drones. We will attack them before they pose a threat to the residents of Israel.
    4. Get away from there, for the sake of your safety and security. Hezbollah intends to fire those munitions toward Israeli territory, and we will not allow this.
    5. Regarding what has surfaced over the last day about Sinwar, I do not rule it out nor do I confirm it.

    1. The actions will continue until we achieve our goal to return the northern [Israel] residents safely to their homes.

    David Mencer
    Israeli Government
    1. Israel will do whatever it takes through diplomacy – or through military means – to secure our northern border. It is what any other country would do.
