Israel’s war ‘with Hezbollah’, Netanyahu says as civilian casualties mount

In a video message addressed to the Lebanese people, Netanyahu says Israel’s war “is not with you. It’s with Hezbollah.”

“For too long, Hezbollah has been using you as human shields. It placed rockets in your living rooms and missiles in your garage,” Netanyahu said in a video posted on his official account on X.

Netanyahu called on the Lebanese population to take “seriously” the Israeli army’s evacuation warnings – something that Lebanon’s Information Ministry asked citizens not to do and categorised as “psychological warfare”.

Netanyahu’s message comes as Israeli forces pound Lebanon, including the capital, Beirut, killing more than 270 people today, among them children. The attacks have caused nationwide panic as civilians flee southern and eastern parts of the country.
