Israel has launched a wave of airstrikes against Lebanon, targeting Iranian-backed Hezbollah militant group and its strongholds. Here’s what you need to know:
What is Hezbollah?
Hezbollah is a Lebanese Shia Muslim political party and militant group that was founded in 1982. It was created to resist the Israeli occupation of southern Lebanon and to promote Islamic values in the region.
Hezbollah is considered a terrorist organization by several countries, including the United States, Canada, and Israel. The group has been involved in various conflicts in the region, including the 2006 Lebanon War and the Syrian Civil War.
Why is Israel attacking Lebanon?
Israel has been attacking Lebanon in response to a series of rocket attacks launched by Hezbollah against Israeli towns and cities. On Tuesday, Hezbollah launched dozens of rockets towards Israel, which prompted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to order the military to retaliate with airstrikes.
Israel claims that Hezbollah is acting on behalf of Iran, which has been increasing its military presence in the region. Iran has been backing Hezbollah since the 1980s, and the group has been seen as a key ally of the Iranian regime.
What is the current situation in Lebanon?
The Israeli airstrikes have caused widespread damage and killed several people in Lebanon. The Lebanese military has vowed to defend the country against the Israeli aggression, but it is unclear how long the conflict will last.
The international community has been calling for a ceasefire, but so far, none has been reached. The United States, which has been a close ally of Israel, has condemned Hezbollah’s actions, but it has also called for restraint from both sides.
What is the impact of the conflict on the region?
The conflict between Israel and Hezbollah has sent shockwaves across the Middle East. It has heightened tensions between Israel and its neighbors, including Iran, and has increased the risk of further escalation.
The conflict has also had an impact on the Lebanese economy, which was already struggling due to a financial crisis. The damage caused by the airstrikes is expected to worsen the economic situation in the country.
What can you do to stay safe?
If you are in Lebanon, you should follow the instructions of local authorities and take necessary precautions to stay safe. Avoid traveling to areas affected by the conflict and stay away from any military operations.
