As conflicts escalate across multiple fronts, the Israeli military issued a stern warning to Iran on Tuesday, vowing to respond “very, very hard” if Tehran retaliates following last week’s air strikes. This statement comes amid Israel’s ongoing military operations in Gaza against Hamas and across the Lebanese border against Hezbollah.

Top Developments in the Israel-Iran-Hezbollah Conflict:

  1. Israeli Military Chief’s Warning to Iran

Lieutenant General Herzi Halevi, Israel’s top military official, issued a strong message: Israel would respond severely if Iran decided to launch another missile attack. “If Iran makes the mistake and launches another barrage of missiles at Israel, we will once again know how to reach Iran… and hit very, very hard both the capabilities and places that we spared this time,” Halevi stated. He added that Israel had deliberately held back on certain targets but could escalate its operations if required.

  1. Israeli Strikes Target Iranian Facilities

In response to a recent ballistic missile attack, Israeli jets launched airstrikes on Saturday targeting Iranian military installations and missile production sites. The strikes aimed at crippling Tehran’s missile capabilities, signaling Israel’s firm stance on self-defense and preemptive action against perceived threats.

  1. Hezbollah’s Leadership Change in Lebanon

The Iran-backed Hezbollah group, currently involved in cross-border clashes with Israel, announced the appointment of Naim Qassem as a successor to Hassan Nasrallah, who was reportedly killed in an Israeli airstrike in south Beirut. Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant called Qassem’s appointment “temporary” and warned, “the countdown has begun,” hinting at continued operations against Hezbollah.

  1. Escalation in Ground Operations

In Lebanon, Israeli forces reportedly made their deepest incursion into the village of Khiam on the Lebanese side of the border, marking a significant step in its month-long ground offensive against Hezbollah.

  1. High Civilian Casualties in Gaza

In Gaza, Israeli airstrikes targeted a densely populated residential block, resulting in nearly 100 civilian deaths on Tuesday. This followed Israel’s decision to bar the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) from operations in Gaza, disrupting essential humanitarian aid amid the ongoing conflict.
