IDF targets Hezbollah Radwan commander in Beirut in first attack on capital in weeks
✦ AI Brief
Israeli airstrikes target Hezbollah in Beirut, escalating regional tensions. The strikes follow ceasefires with Iran and Hezbollah in April, which were violated as Hezbollah resumed attacks on northern Israeli towns. The US had advanced knowledge of the strike, but did not request a "green light". The Israeli government says the attack aims to restore security for northern residents and that no terrorist has immunity. The strike is the first in Lebanon's capital in weeks and targets Hezbollah's Radwan special forces commander.
