Hezbollah's 'Existential' War Against Israel Could Be Its Last
UN chief António Guterres urged Israel and Hezbollah for a ceasefire amid 687 deaths and 800,000 displaced in Lebanon's escalating conflict, calling for political resolution.
- On Friday, Guterres visited Beirut, urged an immediate ceasefire, and launched a $325 million humanitarian appeal for about 800,000 displaced people.
- Hezbollah's March 2 rocket and drone strikes began this round of fighting after the killing of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in joint US and Israeli forces strikes two days earlier.
- The Lebanese health ministry reported that Israeli attacks have killed at least 687 people and wounded 1,774 since March 2, while the Israeli army targeted a bridge over the Litani River between Zrariyeh and Tayr Falsay on Friday.
- The Israeli army widened evacuation warnings to cover more than 40 kilometres and dropped leaflets over Beirut, while Israeli troops captured several new posts in southern Lebanon.
- Calling for diplomacy, António Guterres said 'This is no longer the time of armed groups. This is the time of strong states' and urged a political solution to reclaim Lebanon's sovereignty.
