Israel’s Defence Minister Israel Katz declared that there is “no ceasefire” in Lebanon and warned that any continued attacks on Israeli settlements could trigger strikes on Beirut’s Dahiyeh district. His remarks came after reports that Israel had halted a planned assault on Beirut following diplomatic pressure and rising regional tensions. Katz said the IDF would continue operations against Hezbollah across Lebanon and insisted that Israel would maintain its security zone and military pressure until its objectives were achieved. He also claimed that hundreds of thousands of residents evacuated Dahiyeh after Israeli warnings, increasing pressure on Hezbollah and the Lebanese government. The comments come amid escalating cross-border attacks, reports of Hezbollah operations against Israeli targets, and growing concerns that the Israel-Lebanon conflict could reignite into a wider regional war involving Iran and other actors.
Hezbollah's attacks keep coming, Bibi's top man keeps threatening Dahiyeh - who has the real plan?
