Hezbollah launched a rocket attack into Israel on Saturday, resulting in the deaths of 12 children playing on a soccer field and injuring 44 people.
Middle East Airlines, the Lebanese national carrier, has announced day-long delays for several flights originally scheduled to arrive in Beirut on the evening of July 28, 2024. The airline aims to keep its planes out of the country, fearing that Beirut’s airport will be targeted in an Israeli response. The Israeli air force previously targeted the Damascus and Aleppo airports in Syria.
The U.S. National Security Council has attributed responsibility for the attack to Hezbollah, noting that rockets were launched from Hezbollah-controlled territory.
