Netanyahu Orders Forceful Strikes on Hezbollah With Cease-Fire Under Strain

Washington extended the truce by three weeks to steady fragile talks.

Overview

  • Hezbollah launched a drone and two rockets toward northern Israel in what the Israeli military called a clear cease-fire violation.
  • The IDF said it intercepted the drone and one rocket and reported no injuries from the launches.
  • Netanyahu directed the military to hit Hezbollah targets "with force" and said the group is trying to derail early peace efforts with Lebanon.
  • The Israeli Air Force struck structures in Deir Aames after rockets were fired from that area toward Shtula, and the IDF said more than 15 Hezbollah fighters were killed in recent raids.
  • President Trump extended the cease-fire for three weeks and said he plans to host Israeli and Lebanese leaders at the White House.
