What Comes Next for Gaza Cease-fire and Iran Conflict in Wake of Israel-Hezbollah Escalation?


Israel Defense Forces spokesman Nadav Shoshani stated that Hezbollah’s attack on Israel may have seemed smaller than it was due to a pre-emptive strike carried out by Israeli fighter jets. Hezbollah reportedly fired around 320 Katyusha rockets at 11 Israeli bases and military sites. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned that the hostilities on Sunday were not the end of the conflict. Iran, which has threatened retaliation against Israel for recent assassinations, has yet to act. Israel has not publicly claimed responsibility for the killings but is believed to have carried them out.

Iran’s foreign minister Abbas Aragchi stated that Iran’s response will be measured and calculated. He also praised Hezbollah’s attack as a sign that Israel has lost its deterrence power. Israel’s inability to predict the timing and location of the attack was seen as a failure despite the support it receives from countries like the United States. The ongoing tensions in the region have the potential to escalate further as both sides continue to trade threats and attacks.
