Netanyahu Threatens Hezbollah with 'Tough Response' Despite Diplomatic Efforts
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has threatened a 'hard' strike against Hezbollah despite ongoing diplomatic efforts to deescalate tensions in the region. Several countries, including Germany, have called for their citizens to leave Lebanon immediately, and airlines have suspended flights to Beirut.
The United States is leading diplomatic efforts to prevent an Israeli attack on Beirut after a rocket strike on the Golan Heights. The US is mediating to limit Israeli targets and avoid civilian casualties, while Lebanon expects a 'limited' escalation.
The White House downplays the risk of a broader war, and Iran warns Israel against attacking Lebanon. Macron urges Iran to cease support for destabilizing actors.
Netanyahu vows a 'harsh' response, but he and Biden have not spoken since the attack. The situation is reminiscent of the 2006 war, and Israel's security cabinet has authorized a limited retaliation.
