Israel just showed it’s not messing around! Their air force launched two waves of airstrikes on the mountains above the city of Nabatieh in southern Lebanon. The target? Underground facilities of the pro-Iranian militant group Hezbollah. Yes, you read that right — underground bunkers shattered like paper by bombs! Lebanon’s state news agency reports no casualties, but the intensity of the strikes was higher than usual.
The Israeli military claims they hit a location Hezbollah uses to control its fire defense system. This part of a significant underground project is now out of commission. Why? Because earlier they identified Hezbollah’s attempts to rebuild these sites and struck infrastructure accordingly.
Remember, the war between Israel and Hezbollah isn’t officially over, and Israel has been striking southern Lebanon almost daily. Hezbollah, as part of a ceasefire agreement, was pushed out of areas south of the Litani River, where it’s forbidden to have an armed presence. However, today’s strikes were north of the river, adding fuel to the fire.
No response from Hezbollah yet, but tensions are rising, and the world seems to be turning a blind eye. Will this escalate into a new war? Who will end this underground battle?
If you think this is just another news story, think again. This situation is like a lit fuse on a powder keg. So, what do you think — will the world finally act, or will we all just watch the conflict deepen? Drop a comment and let’s see who’s for peace and who’s for war!
