Hezbollah fired rockets at Israeli military bases near Tel Aviv and a naval facility near Haifa, coinciding with U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken's visit to Israel. Tensions continue to rise amid ongoing conflicts and fears of further escalation.
Hezbollah announced it launched rockets at two Israeli military bases near Tel Aviv and a naval base near Haifa on Tuesday morning, coinciding with U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken's arrival in Israel for talks aimed at achieving a ceasefire.
This escalation follows a year of conflict in Gaza and rising tensions along the Lebanon-Israel border, particularly after a night of Israeli airstrikes in southern Lebanon and Beirut.
Hezbollah targeted the Glilot base, associated with Israeli military intelligence, and areas in Tel Aviv's suburbs, as well as a naval facility near Haifa. No immediate casualties were reported, although air raid sirens sounded in several regions, including southeast Tel Aviv.
Blinken's visit marks his 11th trip to the region since Hamas's attack on Israel on October 7, 2023. His agenda includes discussions on Israel's military response to an Iranian missile attack and efforts to ease tensions in Gaza and Lebanon.
Meanwhile, Iran has expressed concerns about potential Israeli strikes on its nuclear facilities and stated it does not seek conflict but is prepared for any escalation. "We know that Israel does not follow any international rule. We have our own tools to defend ourselves and our nuclear infrastructure," said Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi.
Experts believe that Hamas and Israel are still opposed to each other and are unlikely to make substantial concessions before the U.S. presidential election on November 5, which could potentially alter U.S. policy.
