An Israeli explosion has rocked southern Beirut, crossing one other so-called crimson line for Hezbollah.
The killing of senior commanders and civilians is one other main breach of safety for the group, with Lebanon already on edge for years. Its overseas minister informed an emergency assembly of the UN Safety Council that no person is protected.
With Israel diverting its focus and forces to the north, is it getting ready a floor invasion for what it calls the “second section of the struggle” on Gaza?
How a lot of a blow is all this for Hezbollah? And is the area already at struggle?
