Raketen hail from Lebanon: Hisbollah meets Northern Israel again!

In a dramatic act of aggression, the Lebanese Hezbollah militia started a massaged rocket attack on the north of Israel on Monday. A total of 90 rockets were fired from Lebanon, as the Israeli forces reported. While some floors were intercepted by Israeli rocket defense, others hit uninhabited areas. The Israeli Air Force reacted immediately and attacked the launch ramp, from which 30 rockets were fired.

The Hisbollah claimed five attacks, including the port city of Haifa and the city of Safed in Galilee. This is not the first incident of this kind: on Sunday over 100 rockets have already been fired on Israel. These attacks are part of a persistent conflict that has lasted over a year and has been connected to the Gaza War. Israel has reacted with massive air raids and a soil offensive that led to considerable losses in the ranks of the Hisbollah.

devastating losses on both sides

The numbers are alarming: According to Israeli information, 72 people have been killed in northern Israel since the start of the fights, including 42 civilians. In Lebanon, the losses are even more serious - over 3,000 people are said to have died, including 589 women and at least 185 children. However, these numbers cannot be verified independently.

In the meantime, talks are undertaking under US mediation about a possible end to the fights. US President Joe Biden hopes for an early success in the negotiations for a ceasefire. The Situation is further fueled by the geopolitical tensions, especially with regard to possible changes in US politics that could have an impact on the conflict. In addition, U.S. Secretary of State Antony is pushing for more humanitarian aid for the civilian population in the Gaza Strip, where the situation is catastrophic.
