Israel-Hezbollah War: The conflict between Israel and Hezbollah has reached a new turn, where the Israeli army has carried out airstrikes in the suburbs of Lebanon's capital Beirut. The Israeli army has claimed that it has killed Mohammad Hussein Surour, a key drone commander of Hezbollah, in this attack. This attack is another important action in the series of continuous air strikes by Israel on Hezbollah bases. However, Hezbollah has not yet made any official comment on this claim.

Airstrike in Beirut suburb

The Israeli Air Force carried out an airstrike targeting Hezbollah bases in a suburban area of ​​​​Beirut. The attack was also reported by Al-Manar TV, a major TV station associated with Hezbollah. Although the details of the attack have not been made public yet, the Israeli military claims that it struck an apartment building in the southern part of Beirut, killing the commander of Hezbollah's drone operations.

Hezbollah missile unit commander killed

This latest attack comes days after the Israeli military killed a senior commander of Hezbollah's missile unit in an airstrike. The development has further escalated tensions between Israel and Hezbollah, resulting in an increase in the intensity of attacks on Hezbollah by the Israeli military.

Crisis for Netanyahu government

Itamar Ben-Gvir, an extreme right-wing ally of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government, has warned that he will leave the coalition if there is a permanent ceasefire with Hezbollah. Ben-Gvir, who heads the Jewish Power party, said his party would resign from Netanyahu's government if the ceasefire becomes permanent.

This warning could threaten Netanyahu's government as he could lose his parliamentary majority after Ben-Gvir's resignation. However, opposition leaders have indicated that they will support the ceasefire agreement, which could temporarily save Netanyahu's government.

Conclusion

Amid the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hezbollah, this airstrike could further deepen the conflict. Despite the Israeli army's claim, Hezbollah's response is awaited, which will make it necessary to keep an eye on further developments. Along with this, internal pressure on Netanyahu's government is also increasing, which indicates an instability in Israeli politics.
