Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is promising an “extremely powerful” military response to recent Hezbollah attacks on northern Israel. Fires broke out in communities along the Israel-Lebanon border following rocket attacks launched by Hezbollah from Lebanese territory.
In August 2006, Hezbollah and Israel adopted UN Security Council Resolution 1701, putting an end to 33 days of fighting. The cease-fire is officially still in place, but both the Israeli military and Hezbollah militants have continued striking targets on either side of the border for years.
Since the October 7 Hamas terrorist attacks those cross-border exchanges have begun to intensify.
Casualties on the Lebanese side have primarily been soldiers: Of the 400 people killed since the October 7 attacks, 70 of them have been civilians. In Israel, 15 soldiers and 10 civilians have been killed by Hezbollah strikes. The impact has been catastrophic on both sides of the border with thousands of people forced to leave their homes and communities.
Human Rights Watch has accused Israel of deploying white phosphorus on residential buildings in at least five towns in southern Lebanon. The use of white phosphorus on a civilian population is a crime under international law.
Hezbollah is not the only actor in southern Lebanon: both the Lebanese army as well as the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) have a presence in the south of the country.
