Germany, the USA and other countries are pushing for a break in the fighting in Lebanon. According to Israel’s Defense Minister, the attacks on the Hezbollah militia will continue.
Israeli Defense Minister Joav Galant has announced that attacks on targets in Lebanon will continue despite efforts to reach a ceasefire. “We are continuing our sequence of operations,” Galant said, according to his office.
He met with high-ranking military officials to approve further planned operations. According to Galant, members of the Iranian-backed Hezbollah will be killed in the neighboring country and the militia’s rockets will be destroyed. “We still need to carry out more missions to ensure the safe return of Israel’s northern communities to their homes.”
After massive Israeli bombings in Lebanon with more than 600 deaths, a group of states including the USA and Germany, together with important Arab countries, are pushing for a 21-day break in fighting.
