Israel's air strikes in Lebanon: drama and fear of retaliation!

In an intensive escalation in Lebanon, the Israeli Air Force committed several attacks at night. According to local security sources, a destination was hit in a Palestinian refugee camp near Tripoli, reports on dead and injuries have appeared. This marks the first of this kind since the beginning of the Israeli offensive more than two weeks ago. Attacks were also reported in other regions, including the south valleys and the suburbs of Beirut. Until the editorial deadline, there was no official statement on the incidents from the Israeli army.

In the middle of the tensions in the Middle East, which were recently reinforced by Iran's rocket attack on Israel, there is uncertainty about Israel's possible reaction. While US President Joe Biden from a military attack on Iranian nuclear facilities, the Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump brought a different perspective into play. He described the attack on the nuclear facilities as urgent. The United States observes the situation closely and, if necessary, could put pressure on Israel, while at the same time events are planned for the anniversary of the Hamas attack in Germany and elsewhere. Details of the recent developments are still sparse, but the concern for another escalation remains great, reports www.westfalen-blatt.de .
