New Delhi: After a drone hit Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s private residence in Caesarea on Saturday, Israeli forces struck Hezbollah arms facilities in southern Beirut, news agency Reutersreported. Further, Israeli strikes on several houses in the northern Gaza town of Beit Lahiya have killed at least 73 people and wounded dozens, according to Hamas media. This comes after Netanyahu, in a statement referring to drone attacks, warned: “I say to Iran and its proxies in its axis of evil: Anyone who tries to harm Israel’s citizens will pay a heavy price.”
The drone attack followed Israeli PM’s statement, a day earlier, that the war could end immediately if Hamas returned hostages and ceased its armed actions, which the militant group refused to agree with, as its leader Yahya Sinwar was killed by Israeli forces, thereby escalating the Israel-Hamas war. Meanwhile, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei on Saturday said the death of the Hamas leader will not halt the “Axis of Resistance” and that Hamas “will remain alive.”
Following the killing of Sinwar, on Saturday, Hezbollah had launched around 200 “projectiles,” the Israeli military told Reuters. Israel’s military also said it had destroyed tunnel shafts and underground infrastructure in southern Lebanon. It also said it had killed Hezbollah’s deputy commander of the Bint Jbeil area on Friday, the report stated. On the other side, according to the news agency, tens of thousands of people have fled the southern suburbs of Hezbollah – once a densely populated zone that also housed the Lebanese group’s offices and underground installations – since Israel began regular strikes there about three weeks ago.
