Israeli President Isaac Herzog emphasized on Sunday that Israel is not seeking war with Lebanon, attributing the recent military escalation to Hezbollah, a militant group operating in Lebanon. Herzog stated that Hezbollah, armed by Iran, was responsible for the heightened tensions between the two nations.
Herzog condemned the attack in southern Beirut, linking it to previous assaults by Hamas, another militant group. He reiterated that Israel's primary focus is on self-defense and not on initiating conflict.
