Israeli warplanes struck Hezbollah’s headquarters, leaving the fate of the group’s leader, Hassan Nasrallah, uncertain. The attacks on Hezbollah targets continued through early Saturday, raising tensions in the region.
The airstrikes were part of Israel’s ongoing conflict with Hezbollah, a militant group based in Lebanon. Israel claimed to be targeting Hezbollah in retaliation for ongoing attacks against Israeli forces. The strikes came as tensions increased between Israel and Iran, Hezbollah’s main backer.
Nasrallah’s whereabouts were unknown following the attacks, leading to speculation about his safety. The airstrikes were seen as a significant escalation in the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah, which has been ongoing for years.
The attacks on Hezbollah’s headquarters were met with condemnation from Lebanon, which accused Israel of violating its sovereignty. The Lebanese government called for an end to the attacks and urged the international community to intervene.
Israel defended its actions, claiming that it was acting in self-defense against Hezbollah’s aggression. The Israeli government warned that it would continue to target Hezbollah until the group ceased its attacks on Israeli territory.
The airstrikes raised fears of further escalation in the region, with concerns about the potential for a wider conflict involving Iran and other regional powers. The international community called for both sides to exercise restraint and seek a diplomatic solution to the conflict.
As the situation continued to unfold, the fate of Hassan Nasrallah and the future of the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah remained uncertain. The airstrikes served as a stark reminder of the ongoing tensions in the region and the potential for further violence.
