Israeli Airstrikes Target Nasrallah in Beirut
News summary

On Friday night, Israeli airstrikes targeted Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in Beirut's southern suburbs, causing significant destruction and casualties. The Israel Defense Force (IDF) asserted that the strikes aimed at Hezbollah's central headquarters, which they claim is strategically embedded within residential areas. Despite the intensity of the attack, reports from various sources, including Iran’s Tasnim news agency, indicate that Nasrallah survived. The United States was not informed in advance, with Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin engaging with his Israeli counterpart only after the operation began. This escalation raises concerns about a potential all-out conflict between Israel and Hezbollah, which the Biden administration has been striving to prevent. Additionally, global unions have lodged a complaint with the International Labour Organization demanding Israel pay back wages to over 200,000 Palestinian workers affected by the ongoing conflict.
