Israel's Strong Response to ICC Arrest Warrants for Netanyahu
The Hague-based court has turned the justice system into “a human shield for Hamas’ crimes,” President Isaac Herzog has said
Lebanon's Hezbollah militant group said it fired 62 rockets at a key Israeli military base as part of a "preemptive response" to the killing of a Hamas leader in Beirut this week. The Iranian-affiliated group said: "As part of an operation to counter the assassination of Supreme Leader Sheikh Saleh al-Arouri, the Islamic resistance group (Hezbollah) targeted the Meron air control base with 62 missiles." Name. Air strikes in northern Israel on Saturday.
Hezbollah leader Said Hassan Nasrallah warned on Friday that failure to respond to the killing of Hamas deputy leader al-Arouri would expose all of Lebanon, warning that "there will certainly be no backlash or impunity." The Israeli military previously announced that about 40 rockets were fired from the Meron Air Base and that they hit a "terrorist organization" involved in the launch. There are no reports of casualties or damage. Air raid sirens sounded in villages and towns in northern Israel and later in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights.
Al-Arouri was killed in an Israeli strike on a Hezbollah stronghold on Tuesday. Nasrallah warned Israel against escalating the conflict, saying there would be no "ceiling" and "rules" for his group's fighting if Israel decided to start a war with Lebanon.
"The Israelis were waiting for an answer. "They will receive a high level of training," he said.
The ongoing cross-border fighting has forced Hezbollah to make "a very political judgment" in Lebanon, Khan said. "He doesn't want Lebanon to suffer because of open war, but there is a lot to talk about. "If Israel wants to expand, we will respond in kind," he added.
Israel and Hezbollah have exchanged fire almost every day since the war in the Gaza Strip began last October. The violence was mainly confined to the border areas.
"Israel is using airstrikes and drones to put enormous pressure on Hezbollah strongholds in the south," our correspondent reported. "It's interesting because the more pressure he puts on Hezbollah, the more misses or miscalculated attacks on both sides could happen and the worse the situation could get."
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken is set to make his fourth visit to the Middle East in three months, with an uncertain end to Israel's war in Gaza and heightened regional tensions.
