Netanyahu threatens to “turn Beirut into Gaza“ if Hezbollah attacks
네타냐후 “헤즈볼라, 전면전하면 가자지구로 만들겠다“
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu threatened Hezbollah that Beirut will “turn into Gaza“ if it attacks Israel.
The warning came as at least 350 Palestinians were reportedly killed in the past 24 hours.
Lee Seung-jae has more.
Speaking to troops on Thursday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu sent a stern warning to Hezbollah, saying that if the Lebanese militant group decides to initiate an all-out war with Israel, it will “turn Beirut into Gaza.“
“If Hezbollah chooses to start an all-out war then it will by its own hand turn Beirut and southern Lebanon, not far from here, into Gaza and Khan Younis.“
The warning from the Israeli Prime Minister came hours after a guided missile attack by Hezbollah killed a 60-year-old man in northern Israel.
According to Gaza’s health ministry on Thursday, around 350 Palestinians were killed in Israeli led attacks in a 24-hour span, with another 19 hundred injured.
It added that the cumulative death toll since the start of the armed conflict has surpassed 17-thousand, with 46-thousand injured.
Meanwhile, a U.S. official said the U.S. needs to strengthen its missile defenses around the world due to the wars in Ukraine and in the Middle East, as the burden on its limited missile defense capabilities is increasing.
According to Clair Gill, the Deputy Director for Regional Operations and Force Management at a hearing of the House Armed Services Committee’s Strategic Forces Subcommittee on Thursday, growing geopolitical tensions around the world are increasingly burdening the U.S. military’s integrated air and missile defense capabilities.
He said commanders in each region continue to request missile defense units, but the military cannot meet demand, and is struggling to strike a “balance“ between high-priority regions and regions that need missile defenses immediately.
Thursday’s hearing focused on how missile defense systems, such as the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense and Patriot missiles, which are in high demand worldwide but are limited in quantity, are being deployed by region and its plans to secure assets.
Also mentioned was U.S.’ defense missile cooperation with allies like South Korea and Japan.
