Hezbollah's 'Existential' War Against Israel Could Be Its Last

On Friday, Guterres visited Beirut, urged an immediate ceasefire, and launched a $325 million humanitarian appeal for about 800,000 displaced people.
Hezbollah's March 2 rocket and drone strikes began this round of fighting after the killing of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in joint US and Israeli forces strikes two days earlier.
The Lebanese health ministry reported that Israeli attacks have killed at least 687 people and wounded 1,774 since March 2, while the Israeli army targeted a bridge over the Litani River between Zrariyeh and Tayr Falsay on Friday.
The Israeli army widened evacuation warnings to cover more than 40 kilometres and dropped leaflets over Beirut, while Israeli troops captured several new posts in southern Lebanon.
Calling for diplomacy, António Guterres said 'This is no longer the time of armed groups. This is the time of strong states' and urged a political solution to reclaim Lebanon's sovereignty.
