In a recent development, three explosions were reported on the outskirts of Dahiyeh, Lebanon, near the border with Israel. According to Al Jazeera, this incident comes after the Israeli Iron Dome defense system launched two rockets towards the Lebanese city of En-Nakura, located in the southern part of the country. Lebanese media had previously reported the firing of three rockets from Lebanon towards Israel.
Earlier, the Chief of Staff of the Israeli Defense Forces, Gadi Eizenkot, warned the Shiite organization Hezbollah against interfering in the conflict between Israel and the Palestinian radical movement Hamas. This warning came in the wake of Hamas launching thousands of rockets into Israeli territory on October 7th, marking the beginning of their operation named “Flood of Al-Aqsa.” In response, Israeli Minister of National Security Itamar Ben-Gvir declared a state of emergency in the country.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has declared that the nation is in a state of war, and the Israeli Defense Forces’ operation against Hamas has been named “Iron Swords.” The escalation of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict has been attributed to various factors by political analysts.
The situation at the Lebanon-Israel border and the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas have raised concerns about the stability of the region. The international community is closely monitoring the situation as tensions continue to escalate.
