Israel Seeks to Avoid All-Out War in Lebanon Amid Rising Tensions. #Israel #Lebanon #Hezbollah

Israeli officials state their aim to retaliate against Hezbollah without dragging the Middle East into an all-out war. A rocket strike killed 12 children in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights, prompting a potential military response. Lebanon braces for Israeli retaliation, while Iran warns Israel of serious consequences for any attack on Lebanon. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu promises a harsh response but seeks to avoid escalating the conflict into a full-scale war. The U.S. leads diplomatic efforts to constrain Israel’s response and prevent escalation, urging restraint in targeting major Lebanese infrastructure. Hostilities have forced mass displacement on both sides, fueling concerns that ongoing cross-border tensions may spiral into a broader conflict. The U.N. peacekeeping mission intensifies contacts with both sides to de-escalate, stressing the importance of a diplomatic solution.
