Netanyahu Reaches Out to Lebanon After Attacks

In the wake of Israeli airstrikes that killed nearly 500 people in Lebanon, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reached out to the Lebanese people, urging them not to act as “human shields” for Hezbollah. In a video message, he emphasized that Israel’s conflict is with Hezbollah, which has been hiding missiles in civilian areas.

Netanyahu warned the Lebanese to heed the Israeli Defense Forces’ advice to evacuate dangerous zones, stating, “Don’t let Hezbollah endanger your lives and the lives of your loved ones.” He reassured that once the military operation is over, they could return safely to their homes.

The recent violence marks a significant escalation in cross-border tensions, with reports of casualties, including many women and children. Both Israel and Hezbollah remain defiant, refusing to back down amidst growing calls from global powers for de-escalation.
