Israel-Hezbollah faceoff escalates risk of wider conflict

Following clashes and reciprocal attacks between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon over the border areas of the two countries, concerns about the occurrence of a broader war have increased. These concerns were heightened after the confirmation of the Israeli army’s attack plan against Hezbollah in Lebanon.

Israel Katz, the Israeli Foreign Minister, threatened Hezbollah militants with “total war” following the Israeli army’s statement confirming the attack plan against Hezbollah in Lebanon.
