Russia says Israel bears full responsibility for ‘almost inevitable’ escalation

Russia’s Foreign Ministry has strongly condemned “yet another political assassination” by Israel, referring to Nasrallah’s killing. “This forceful action is fraught with even greater dramatic consequences for Lebanon and the entire Middle East,” the ministry said in a statement. “The Israeli side could not fail to recognise this danger, but took the step of killing Lebanese citizens, which would almost inevitably provoke a new outburst of violence. Thus, it bears full responsibility for the subsequent escalation.” The ministry called on Israel to immediately stop hostilities in Lebanon.

Meanwhile, Al Jazeera's Gabriel Elizondo joins live for the latest updates.

Israel understand only might. Empty words will not stop its shameful crimes.

Russia speaks they all listen. Isreal spoke they walked out. America always raising its hand. The UN needs to step up its game. The world needs a whole lot of peace in it.

Sorry this time I had to agree with Russian. The west keep giving weapons to Israel. While israel is taking it for granted, they knew regardless they do they knew the west would had no choice but to continue to support due to the west had invested so much in Israel all this years.

I`m pretty sure those numbers are in the 100`000 class. Look at how these settler guys have been behaving for decades and how dehumanized Palestinians even amongst children that`s all over TikTok and other social media. I`ve been to many countries and i know a former IDF soldier personally so I`m afraid I saw this coming before Oct 7th, I was just waiting for some terrible news to show up before BB would go on a spree get the era. Mossad has done deep infiltration, they must have gotten to one of the leaders and paid them of to organize the attack. Given Mossads history this might be very likely. We know their money was funneled trough BB before entering Gaza, and we also know intelligence had been observing these training camps used by Hamas. Talk about being a psychopatic leader. The guy lies more than he inhales.
