Israel Strikes Beirut, Kills Senior Hezbollah Leader
In a significant escalation, Israel launched an airstrike in Beirut, killing Hezbollah's chief of staff, Haytham Tabtabai. This marks Israel's first strike on the Lebanese capital in months, raising tensions just days before Pope Leo XIV's visit to Lebanon.
The attack resulted in five deaths and 25 injuries, with Israel citing repeated Hezbollah ceasefire violations as justification. Analysts warn this could lead to further conflict in the region, as Hezbollah contemplates its response. As the situation develops, many are left wondering: what will be the next move from both sides?
