US EditionIsraeli strike on Lebanon 'unacceptable' ceasefire violation, Macron says
- On March 28, 2025, Israel conducted an air strike on the Hadath neighborhood in Beirut's southern suburbs, marking the first such action since the November ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah.
- The strike followed unclaimed rocket fire from Lebanese territory into Israel earlier that day, with Israel vowing a strong response to protect its security.
- Prior to the strike, the Israeli military issued an evacuation order to residents of Hadath, a densely populated area with residential buildings and schools, claiming the buildings were near Hezbollah facilities, as communicated by military spokesperson Avichay Adraee.
- French President Emmanuel Macron, during a joint press conference with Lebanese President Joseph Aoun in Paris, condemned the strikes as "unacceptable" and a violation of the ceasefire, stating that they "betray a given promise and play into Hezbollah’s hands."
- While Hezbollah denied involvement in the initial rocket launch and claimed the Israeli action was a pretext for continued military operations, the US State Department asserted Israel's right to defend itself while emphasizing the Lebanese government's responsibility to disarm terrorist groups, raising fears of a collapse of the fragile ceasefire brokered by France and the United States.
