Israel strikes Lebanon while Hezbollah calls talks ‘dead end’

Israeli strikes targeted eastern and southern Lebanon on Sunday, state media reported, despite a fragile ceasefire, as a Hezbollah lawmaker called Lebanon’s negotiations with Israel a “dead-end”. 

Two Israeli strikes hit the town of Sohmor in eastern Lebanon’s Bekaa valley, the state-run National News Agency (NNA) said, adding that others took place across southern Lebanon.

Israeli attacks since the start of the war have killed more than 2,900 people in Lebanon, including more than 400 since the truce began on April 17, according to Lebanese authorities.

The latest strikes came after envoys from Israel and Lebanon held a third round of negotiations in Washington and agreed to extend the ceasefire.

Nevertheless, fighting has continued, with Israeli strikes and Hezbollah attacks on Israeli forces.

Iran-backed Hezbollah has repeatedly denounced talks with Israel.

“The direct negotiations that the authorities in Lebanon have conducted with the Israeli enemy have… led them down a dead-end path that will result in nothing but one concession after another,” Hezbollah lawmaker Hussein Hajj Hassan said on Sunday.

“Neither they nor anyone else will be able to carry out what the enemy wants, especially when it comes to the issue of disarming the resistance,” he said, adding that the authorities are bringing the country to “very big predicaments”.

On Saturday the group said it had struck a military target in northern Israel, having earlier announced several operations against Israeli forces in southern Lebanon.

Israel sent ground forces into southern Lebanon during the latest war and they continue to occupy territory near the border between the two countries.
