Israel Strikes Southern Lebanon as Hezbollah Rejects Talks

Officials warn the raids are jeopardizing Lebanon’s disarmament plan.

Overview

  • The Israel Defense Forces conducted a series of airstrikes on November 6 against Hezbollah targets in several southern Lebanese villages after warning residents to evacuate.
  • Lebanon’s Health Ministry reported at least one person killed and multiple injuries, including a wounded civilian in Tayr Debba, during the latest bombardments.
  • In an open letter, Hezbollah rejected any political negotiations with Israel and asserted a legitimate right to self‑defense, while claiming adherence to the 2024 ceasefire.
  • Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other Israeli officials said the strikes aim to stop Hezbollah from rearming, as a government spokeswoman vowed not to allow the group to rebuild.
  • President Joseph Aoun condemned the attacks, said Israel has not answered his offer to negotiate, and the Lebanese Army and UNIFIL warned the raids are obstructing army deployment and undermining progress toward a political solution.
