The Biden administration: always standing at Israel’s back. [IsraelTimes] The US has reportedly warned Israel not to target the sovereign infrastructure of Lebanon as it tackles Hezbollah across the border.
Two days ago, US officials told their Israeli counterparts that they support the IDF’s actions targeting Hezbollah while warning that the US “red line” was that Israel not “knowingly and deliberately” do anything that leads to all-out war, Channel 12 reports.
Now, it says, the US has “sharpened” that message and is telling Israel “under no circumstances” to harm the infrastructure and/or assets of the sovereign state of Lebanon. The US has told Israel to “distinguish as far as possible” between Hezbollah and Lebanon, the report says. |
