Rising Hostilities: Israel and Hezbollah Exchange Strikes
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

Following a devastating series of Israeli strikes on Monday that resulted in nearly 500 fatalities and forced tens of thousands to flee for safety, hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah have intensified. On Tuesday morning, both sides exchanged fire, with Israel claiming it targeted Hezbollah positions in southern Lebanon. Hezbollah countered by stating it struck multiple Israeli military sites, including an explosives factory 60 km (37 miles) into Israel, using Fadi rockets around 4 a.m. (0100 GMT). The group also reported attacks on the Megiddo airfield near Afula.

Fears of Broader Conflict

The ongoing aggression raises concerns about a potential full-scale war that could involve regional powers, particularly Iran, and Israel’s military ally, the United States.

Impact on Lebanon

Lebanon, already grappling with a five-year financial crisis cannot afford the cost of a full blown war. As tensions escalate, over 30 international flights to and from Beirut were canceled on Tuesday, affecting airlines such as Qatar Airways, Turkish Airways, and various carriers from the UAE.

Political Responses

Lebanese caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati announced plans to travel to New York for the United Nations General Assembly to engage in discussions following the recent Israeli strikes on Lebanon.

Israel’s Military Advantage

Israel’s advanced intelligence and technology have provided it with a significant advantage in both Lebanon and Gaza, enabling it to locate and assassinate high-ranking Hezbollah and Hamas leaders. In the latest exchanges, Israel reported that approximately 55 projectiles had crossed into its territory, with most intercepted and some landing in open areas, causing damage to buildings.

Hezbollah’s Challenges

Hezbollah recently suffered heavy losses due to a major security breach involving the explosion of thousands of its communication devices. While Israel has not officially claimed responsibility for this incident, Hezbollah has attributed it to Israeli actions, heightening pressure on the group to respond. Despite this, a senior source familiar with Hezbollah thinking said that Hezbollah is under serious contemplations having being pushed to the wall by Israel, but does not want a wider conflict.

International Concerns

Hezbollah stated it targeted logistical warehouses of the 146th Division in the Naftali base. Meanwhile, the foreign ministers of the G7 nations expressed concerns that the Middle East could spiral into a broader conflict that would benefit no nation, highlighting the urgent need for de-escalation.
