War: Israel's Strikes on Hezbollah and the Need for Evacuations in Beirut
War Intensifies in the Middle East
Missiles slammed into southern Lebanon, shattering the early-morning silence Monday as Israel said it was targeting Hezbollah weapons hidden in residential buildings. The explosions came as Israel heralded a new wave of attacks on the Iran-backed group in Lebanon, warning civilians to flee from any areas where the organization had weapons or fighters positioned.
Evacuation Warnings Issued
The warnings, delivered with automated phone calls, text messages and reportedly even over Lebanese radio stations hacked into by Israel’s military, came after a weekend of deadly crossfire between the two bitter enemies in the heart of the Middle East. Hezbollah launched more than 100 rockets in a salvo over the weekend, sending them hurtling deeper into northern Israel.
