Lee Seung-jae has more.
Hezbollah says one of its top-ranking commanders has been killed in an Israeli attack in southern Lebanon.
Lebanon’s state media said, Wissam Tawil, who is considered one of the most prominent figures in the Lebanese militant group was killed in an Israeli air strike that targeted a car that the commander was in.
According to AFP, Tawil “had a leading role in managing Hezbollah’s operations in the south“ of Lebanon.
However, Israel did not comment on the attack, but it did say it had hit Hezbollah targets in response to cross-border attacks.
Regarding the war in Gaza Strip, the office of the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu released a joint statement from both the prime minister and defense chief Yoav Gallant, where the two stressed that the war there would not end anytime soon, and that “it will continue for many months.“
They also called for international support in order for them to continue the fighting in Gaza.
Speaking to the New York Times,. Israel Defense Forces spokesperson Daniel Hagari said its military has begun a new, less intensive phase in its war against Hamas in Gaza.
He added that the new phase means fewer ground troops and airstrikes.
The comments came hours before U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken arrived in Israel, to discuss the transition to the next phase in fighting and preventing the conflict from spreading.
Meanwhile, Blinken sent a message of warning to the Houthi militants in Yemen, saying they will face “consequences“ for continued attacks on ships in the Red Sea.
Blinken told reporters Monday in Saudi Arabia that some 40 countries have called on Houthis to stop their attacks.
The top American diplomat also made stops in Türkiye, Greece, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates in quick succession, before his visit to Israel.
