Israeli strikes hit Hezbollah arms depots in Lebanon, sparking fears of escalating conflict

In southern Lebanon, Israeli airstrikes targeted Hezbollah weapons depots, causing secondary explosions. These attacks are part of Israel’s efforts to weaken Hezbollah’s military capabilities, including targeted killings of its members far from the border. Despite Hezbollah’s attempts to divert Israel’s focus from Gaza, Israeli strikes continue with little restraint. Analysts suggest Hezbollah’s actions have not deterred Israel. The group has accused Israel of crossing red lines by targeting Beirut and civilians, which could escalate the conflict further if a ceasefire in Gaza is not reached.

Blinken undermines the chances of a ceasefire to appease Netanyahu: Marwan Bishara

Al Jazeera’s senior political analyst Marwan Bishara highlights that the United States’s bridging proposal has ultimately revealed a betrayal of their role as mediators. He emphasizes that while the US has never been entirely honest brokers, they had to maintain some semblance of objectivity to keep the process credible and advance their agenda. Bishara suggests that Hamas is once again being cornered, largely due to US actions, as Israel consistently opposed a permanent ceasefire. Despite Hamas making concessions and accepting American demands, Israel continued to impose new conditions, rendering the idea of a ceasefire meaningless. Bishara argues that the current situation is more of a pause, where Israel secures the […]
