Earlier today, Israel struck 800 armed sites in Lebanon, in retaliation for Hezbollah’s ongoing missile hits in northern Israel.
Hezbollah is armed and financed by Iran (like are Hamas and the Houthis in Yemen).
A couple of days ago, Israel gave warning to Hezbollah to back off or war would follow.
Hezbollah ignored the warning.

Neither Russia nor China, its allies, will come to its rescue.
Hezbollah and Hamas are now on their own.
