Israel conducts "targeted strike" in Beirut despite U.S. warning against escalation after pagers explode

Summary

The IDF said it had "eliminated" Hezbollah commander Ibrahim Aqil. The U.S. had previously offered a "reward of up to $7 million"

Hezbollah strikes northern Israel again in a counterattack, killing at least two soldiers. The deadly escalation in violence followed a televised address from a weary-looking Hassan Nasrallah.

Analyst: "This would lead to a kind of a slow, depleting war for Israel" Hundreds of Hezbollah fighters were likely injured by the explosives attacks.

Dang, you're right. There's too much of a geopolitical necessity that gives them the negotiating advantage.
