Hezbollah fighters have resumed their shelling of Israeli army positions in the Shebaa area at the foothills of the Golan Heights. The attack specifically targeted the command and observation post of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) in Birket-en-Nakkar, resulting in significant destruction. However, Israeli military officials have not yet confirmed the assault on their positions.
Previously, the IDF had reported striking Hezbollah in southern Lebanon in response to unidentified aerial objects infiltrating Israel. In a telephone conversation between German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, both leaders affirmed the need to prevent Hezbollah’s involvement in the conflict in the Middle East.
Furthermore, German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier expressed his concern over the support for Hamas on the streets of Berlin.
This latest aggression by Hezbollah raises tensions in the already volatile region, with potential implications for the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East. The resumption of hostilities highlights the complex dynamics and challenges faced by regional powers and international actors in maintaining peace and stability. It also underscores the importance of effective diplomacy and collaboration in addressing the root causes of such conflicts.
