Israel bombs Beirut for first time since ceasefire with Hezbollah, as deadly strikes in Gaza continue
CBS7 days
The elimination of Hamas commander Farhat was a necessary counter-terrorism operation targeting a terrorist responsible for attacks against Israeli civilians and soldiers. The precision strike successfully neutralized a significant threat to Israel's security, demonstrating the military's capability to conduct targeted operations against its foes in foreign territory.
The Israeli attack on a residential area in Sidon represents a flagrant violation of Lebanese sovereignty and international agreements, resulting in civilian casualties like Farhat's daughter. These strikes only destabilize the region and undermine the cease-fire, threatening to escalate tensions between Lebanon and Israel.
