Israel says it has launched the "biggest attack" on Lebanon so far
Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has made it clear that although he accepts the agreement between the United States and Iran, Lebanon does not enter into the treaty.
The Israeli Armyhas reported today that it has launched the "largest offensive" against Lebanon so far and has ensured that several infrastructure of the Shia Hezbollah militia has been completely destroyed.
Shortly after the US and Iran announced a two-week ceasefire, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has made it clear that Lebanon does not enter that treaty, so he has said that attacks there will not stop.
"The Israeli army has launched an extensive attack on the military infrastructure of the Hezbollah militia in Beirut, the largest since we launched the offensive in February," Netanyahu said.
The Prime Minister has explained that, among other things, "checkpoints and militia training sites in Hezbollah have been destroyed." In his words, this is an attack on structures that "organize terrorist attacks" against Israel.
1,500 dead in Lebanon
For his part, Lebanese President Joseph Aoun has welcomed the US-Iran ceasefire, but has called for Lebanon to be taken into account as well. "We need a treaty to establish peace throughout the region," he said.
Hezbollah, for its part, has stressed that the country is "on the verge of a historic victory."
According to the latest balance sheet released by the Lebanese authorities, since the end of last February, 1,500 citizens have been killed and about 4,600 injured in Israeli attacks.
Since the truce, 735 dead in Gaza
In Gaza, too, attacks continue despite the entry into force of the ceasefire in October last year. According to the latest data, since the establishment of the truce, Israel has killed 735 people in its attacks on the Gaza Strip.
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has accused of "continuing attacks by Israeli settlers" and has demanded that the agreement signed last night also include Gaza, the West Bank and Lebanon.
