In a sudden development, the Israeli government has imposed severe restrictions on gatherings in the northern region, amidst ongoing tensions with Hezbollah militants in Lebanon. The move comes as a series of targeted attacks have been launched by Israel against Hezbollah positions, sparking concerns of a full-blown conflict.
Restrictions Imposed:
According to official sources, the Israeli military has enforced a ban on public gatherings, including demonstrations and festivals, in the northern city of Haifa and the surrounding areas. The measures are aimed at preventing the spread of unrest and minimizing the risk of clashes with Hezbollah supporters.
Attack on Hezbollah Position:
In a separate development, Israeli warplanes launched airstrikes against a Hezbollah military post in the Bekaa Valley, Lebanon, early Thursday morning. The attack is believed to have killed at least three Hezbollah fighters, according to sources.
Escalating Tensions:
The recent wave of attacks has raised concerns of a wider conflict in the region. The United States, France, and other international powers have called for restraint from both sides, urging them to pursue diplomatic channels to resolve their differences.
Background:
The current tensions are rooted in a long-standing dispute over Lebanon’s sovereignty and the presence of Israeli forces in the disputed territory of Shebaa Farms. Hezbollah, a Lebanese Shia militant group, has been accused of smuggling arms and supporting extremist groups in the region.
