Hezbollah, Israel exchange heavy fire after deadly Israeli strike

ai generated text

The Israeli military has launched a series of airstrikes on targets in southern Lebanon, primarily aimed at Hezbollah rocket launchers. The strikes come in response to a barrage of rockets fired from Lebanon into Israel, with some landing near the city of Haifa. The Israeli military claims to have struck thousands of rocket launchers, as well as other unspecified targets, with the goal of preventing an immediate threat to Israel.

Benjamin Netanyahu
Israeli Government
1. If Hezbollah has not understood the message, I promise you, it will understand the message.
2. Our objectives are clear and our actions speak for themselves.
3. No country can tolerate attacks on its citizens.
Israel Defense Forces
1. Hundreds of thousands of Israeli civilians spent their night hiding in bomb shelters, while barrages of rockets were flying over their heads, some hitting their homes, and rocket alert sirens were constantly sounding throughout the night. Thousands of children will stay in bomb shelters today instead of going to school due to the risk to their lives. We must stop this reality.
2. The IDF (military) is currently striking targets belonging to the Hezbollah terrorist organisation in Lebanon.
3. Approx. 180 Hezbollah targets and thousands of launcher barrels, ready for immediate use against Israeli civilians, were dismantled by a number of strikes in southern Lebanon.
4. During the night and the morning hours, approximately 150 rockets, cruise missiles, and UAVs were launched toward Israeli territory, most of them aimed at northern Israel.
German Foreign Ministry
1. Once again, the entire region is holding its breath. We urgently need concrete steps in the #MiddleEast to de-escalate and avoid further civilian casualties. FM @ABaerbock was in touch with her counterparts in Israel and Lebanon about necessary next steps.
Jake Sullivan
US National Security Agency
1. You know, 1983 seems like a long time ago.
Jeanine Hennis-Plasschaert
United Nations
1. With the region on the brink of an imminent catastrophe, it cannot be overstated enough: there is NO military solution that will make either side safer.
Naim Qassem
Hezbollah
1. We will kill them and fight them from where they expect and from where they do not expect.
2. What happened last night is just the beginning.
John Kirby
White House National Security Council
1. We don't believe that escalating this military conflict is in their best interest.
Daniel Hagari
Israel Defense Forces
1. We advise civilians from Lebanese villages located in and next to buildings and areas used by Hezbollah for military purposes, such as those used to store weapons, to immediately move out of harm's way for their own safety.
2. Hezbollah is endangering you. Endangering you and your families.
3. Shortly, the IDF will engage in extensive, precise strikes, against terror targets which have been embedded widely throughout Lebanon.
