New era of war beginning — Israel warns Hezbollah



Israel on Wednesday warned that a new era of war was beginning, CNN reports.


This is even as Israel tacitly acknowledged its role in shock twin attacks targeting Hezbollah that have pushed the Middle East back to the brink of wider conflict.


Lebanon was rocked by more deadly blasts as walkie-talkies detonated in Beirut and the south of Lebanon.


The development came almost exactly 24 hours after explosions targeting the pagers of Hezbollah members killed multiple people, including children, and injured more than 2,800.


According to the report, at least 20 people were killed and more than 450 injured in Wednesday’s explosions, citing Lebanon’s health ministry.


However, Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant appeared to reference the attacks during a visit Wednesday to the Ramat-David Air Force base in northern Israel.


“We are at the beginning of a new era in this war and we need to adapt ourselves,” Gallant said.


He also extolled the “excellent achievements” of the IDF together with the country’s security agency, the Shin Bet, and its intelligence agency Mossad.
