Israel has hit southern Beirut in the first attack on the Lebanese capital since a truce brokered by the US last week.
Two air strikes on two apartment buildings in a stronghold of Iran-backed Hezbollah killed two people and injured at least 20, including women and children, Lebanon's health ministry said.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel had struck "terrorist headquarters in the Dahieh district of Beirut, in response to Hezbollah's firing at Israeli territory".
Israel had limited its Beirut attacks under US pressure over concerns strikes there could put a wider peace deal in jeopardy. But on Sunday night, Iran fired missiles at Israel, which it said was a response to Israel's increasing attacks in southern Lebanon and Beirut's suburbs.

Hit ‘em again, harder, harder.
There’s what, 17 terrorists left and they don’t think they’re being watched? Boom.
We need more of Israel not listening to us. It sets up a good cop-bad cop drama. I’m sure Trump knows this.
Israel kills Hamas terrorist commander tied to Oct. 7 massacre
Israeli forces killed a Hamas Nukhba terrorist cell commander in a targeted strike in southern Gaza last week, identified as Sakr Abu Karim, who helped lead the Oct. 7, 2023, infiltration of the Kissufim area.
“”Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel had struck “terrorist headquarters in the Dahieh district of Beirut, in response to Hezbollah’s firing at Israeli territory”.””

The only good terrorist... is a dead terrorist. And why the hell would anyone allow them to HAVE headquarters? Now watch the idiots that are anti-Israel attempt to demonize this action and draw a division between Bibi and Trump over it...
again and as usual.
Iām beginning to suspect a good-cop bad-cop scenario between Netanyahu and President Trump. š
Nicely stated.
Barely Believable Corp.

Knows and is using it to our advantage. It’s no real secret. It’s just that the anti-Israel morons pretend not to know.

They make a really good team. Which is why the Trump/Bibi enemies (including trolls right here on this forum) constantly bash and try to create division among their supporters. The trolls are hoping that the mental midgets will fall for their BS.
Except that the good cop is becoming a pussy.
For all intents and purposes, there is no consistent, inhabited “Northern Israel.”
Hezbollah/Iran in Lebanon have never stopped launching rockets at Northern and central Israel. Some days they launch hundreds of rockets. When the top 20-40 Hezbollah creeps were eliminated, there was a slow down.
Since Iran/Hezbollah/Hamas/DemoKKKrats will not be satisfied until every Jew on the planet is no longer breathing, Israel must not “cease.”
New Israeli strikes now.
Given Iran’s actions the headline is so f’n dishonest only the leftist creeps at the BBC could come up with it.
Lolz no
Yeah because Hezbollah has been sending missiles to Israel killing more IDF soldiers in a supposed “cease fire” than when they were actually fighting
All Ive been hearing from the left(and some here) is that this is Israel’s war we have NO right to be involved) Ok fine, so let Israel fight this war..they have EVERY right to defend themselves, so let them fight..and we can stay out of it, so why is Trump telling BiBi to not strike back..that would be like telling a battered wife “Well did he kill you, so just move on he wont do it again go home”
šš
Lol. Peace Deal. Lololol. Don’t be ridiculous. Hezbollah will never stick to any peace deal.
