[Israeli Prime Minister Says Israel is at War with Hezbollah] Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu posted a video on social media on the evening of May 25, stating that Israel is "at war with Hezbollah in Lebanon." He has ordered an "escalation of the offensive against Hezbollah." Following Netanyahu's video, the Israeli military announced a large-scale attack on "Hezbollah targets" in the Bekaa Valley of eastern Lebanon. Residents in the southern suburbs of Beirut, the Lebanese capital, began fleeing. The southern suburbs of Beirut are considered "important Hezbollah strongholds." Despite US President Trump's announcement of a temporary ceasefire that began on April 16 and which has been extended multiple times, clashes between Israel and Hezbollah continue. The Israeli military has maintained a large presence in southern Lebanon, with its air force continuously striking so-called "Hezbollah strongholds," while ground troops have destroyed towns allegedly controlled by Hezbollah.
