Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz have authorized expanded military operations against Hezbollah in Lebanon, including airstrikes in Beirut’s southern suburbs and the seizure of strategic positions.

    1. Following repeated violations of the ceasefire in Lebanon by the terrorist group Hezbollah and the attacks against our cities and citizens, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defence Minister Israel Katz ordered the IDF to attack terrorist targets in the Dahiyeh district in Beirut.
    1. At the same time, the IDF continues to operate with fire and manoeuvre against Hezbollah terrorists and infrastructure in Lebanon… in order to push threats away from IDF forces and from the residents of the State of Israel, and to turn the Litani area into a zone under IDF security control, free of weapons and terrorists.
    2. The Dahiyeh in Beirut is no different from the communities in northern Israel – if there is no calm in the north, there will be no calm in Beirut.
    1. We are damaging them in the operations, but in parallel we need to pursue a political and diplomatic solution.
    1. At approximately 7:00 GMT, the Israeli prime minister and the Israeli defence minister issued a joint statement, saying that they ordered the Israeli army to target Beirut's southern suburbs, and immediately after that people started packing whatever they could, and make their way out of these neghbourhoods.
