Slain Hezbollah leader Nasrallah’s successors killed: Netanyahu

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced that Israeli airstrikes had killed two successors to Hezbollah’s leader and expanded the ground offensive against the Iran-backed group in Lebanon. Hezbollah, reeling from senior commanders’ killings, left the door open to a negotiated ceasefire. Israel claimed to have degraded Hezbollah’s capabilities, including targeting potential successors. Tensions escalated with heavy airstrikes in southern Lebanon, resulting in casualties. Western powers seek a diplomatic solution to avoid further conflict in the region. Hezbollah expressed willingness for a truce, and Israel continued its military operations. The conflict has led to casualties and mass displacement in Lebanon, with Israel aiming to secure its northern areas from rocket attacks.
