Israel: War against Hamas reaches new phase

In the last week alone, an Israeli airstrike has killed a Hezbollah commander in Lebanon, Hezbollah struck a sensitive Israeli base with rockets and Israel killed a senior Hamas militant with an airstrike in Beirut. Each strike and counterstrike increases the risk of the catastrophic war in Gaza spilling across the region. There are fears that any party could trigger a wider war if only to avoid appearing weak in the decades-old standoff pitting the U.S. and Israel against Iran and allied militant groups.
