Washington DC; April 2026<\/strong>: Lebanon’s Hezbollah resistance movement launched a rocket barrage towards an illegal settlement lying on the northern side of the occupied territories in response to earlier deadly Israeli strikes. In a statement today (09th April 2026), the movement said it had targeted the Manara settlement “in defense of Lebanon and its people, in response to the enemy’s violation of the ceasefire agreement, and after the resistance adhered to the ceasefire while the enemy did not. This response will continue until the Israeli-American aggression against our country and our people ceases”, the group stated. Earlier, the Israeli regime targeted various areas throughout Lebanon, including the capital Beirut, killing at least 254 people and wounding 1,150 others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

United States Congressman Robert Garcia emphasized on X that the urgent need for diplomatic intervention, stating: “The U.S. must ensure that any ceasefire agreement includes Lebanon. Netanyahu is brutally bombing Beirut, killing civilians, and destroying critical infrastructure. This regional war must end now”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Republican Jim McGovern echoed this sentiment in post on X, directly addressing the US President’s role in the crisis: “Netanyahu’s ongoing bombardment of Lebanon, which has killed civilians for weeks, threatens to plunge the region into even further chaos & unravel the ceasefire. Trump needs to stand up to Netanyahu. He needs to save the deal he negotiated. He has leverage. He should use it!”.<\/p>\n\n\n

Inside Lebanon, the country’s leadership issued blistering condemnations. The Lebanese president, speaker, and prime minister strongly condemned on Wednesday the brutal Israeli aggression that hit multiple civilian areas across Lebanon, including Beirut, the South, and the Bekaa region. In a statement published on the Lebanese presidency\u2019s official account on X, President Joseph Aoun described the aggression as “savage”, saying it violates all agreements and international norms and repeatedly demonstrates disregard for international laws and conventions. He stressed that this escalation places full responsibility for its consequences on Israel, warning that continued aggressive policies will only deepen tension and instability at a time when de-escalation is urgently needed. He also called on the international community to assume its responsibilities to halt these repeated attacks and stop a dangerous pattern threatening regional security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri described today\u2019s Israeli aggression as \u201ca full-fledged war crime\u201d. Berri said today\u2019s aggression represents a serious test for the international community and a blatant challenge to international laws, norms, and conventions, which “Israel” is violating through its continued disregard for human life. He added that the events are also a test for all Lebanese political, religious, and civil leaders to unite in the face of the bloodshed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

French President Macron have condemned the Israeli strikes on Lebanon. We condemn these strikes in the strongest possible terms. They pose a direct threat to the sustainability of the ceasefire that has just been reached. Lebanon must be fully covered by it.<\/p>\n\n\n

The French President has further stressed that the timing of the escalation, coinciding with a declared regional ceasefire that Israel has failed to respect, amounts to a direct challenge to the international community and a flagrant violation of international law and conventions. He said “Israel” is persisting in an unprecedented campaign of killing civilians and destroying lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Iran’s Foreign Minister Seyyed Abbas Araghchi says the ceasefire terms are clear and explicit. Calling on the US to act on its commitments following the Israeli attack on Lebanon. The US must choose \u2014 \u201cceasefire or continued war via Israel”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
