Lebanon

Internal strife in Lebanon has caused protests against the government in Hezbollah territory and murder in a refuge camp. The Lebanese government, however, warns that it will unite militarily with Hezbollah if Israel crosses the Litani River. Meanwhile, Hezbollah admits it underestimated Israel’s response prior to the war, and Nasrallah rejects letters for captive IDF soldiers. Israel is strengthening its border defenses.
