Hamas criticised the latest US proposal as a “reversal” of previous agreements and accused the US of bowing to new conditions from Israel. There was no immediate response from the US to these claims. First responders in the Golan Heights reported treating a 30-year-old man injured by shrapnel from the attack.
Hezbollah fired more than 50 rockets targeting private homes in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights on Wednesday. The attack came after a meeting in Cairo between US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Egyptian and Qatari officials as they worked towards a ceasefire in the Gaza conflict. Despite these efforts, both Hamas and Israel have indicated ongoing obstacles.
Hamas criticized the latest US proposal as a “reversal” of previous agreements and accused the US of bowing to new conditions from Israel. There was no immediate response from the US to these claims. First responders in the Golan Heights reported treating a 30-year-old man injured by shrapnel from the attack. A house caught fire, but firefighters managed to prevent a major disaster by stopping a gas leak. The Hezbollah attack was reportedly in retaliation for an Israeli attack on Tuesday night that killed one person and injured 19. Earlier on Tuesday, Hezbollah launched more than 200 projectiles at Israel after an Israeli attack on a Hezbollah weapons depot.
The ongoing conflict between Israel and Hezbollah has seen constant gunfire over the past 10 months, made worse by Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza. The conflict has resulted in more than 500 deaths in Lebanon – mostly terrorists, but including about 100 civilians – and 49 deaths in Israel, including 23 soldiers and 26 civilians.
