Mounting Tensions in the Middle East Between Israel & Hezbollah | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

There's mounting tensions in the Middle East where Israeli's Air Force struck Hezbollah military buildings and other terror targets Tuesday in southern Lebanon. This comes as Israel's Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant is in Washington DC and met earlier today with US counterpart Secretary Lloyd Austin, who told Gallant that he is in part "extremely concerned about the rise in rocket attacks on Israel's north from Lebanese Hezbollah and the recent surge in tensions." Former US Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for the Middle East, Simone Ledeen, joins to talk about what is happening between Israel and the Iranian proxy Hezbollah. The US has warned Hezbollah that it can't restrain Israel if the situation continues to heat up. Meanwhile, the terror group says it won't agree to a cease fire unless there is one in Gaza, and there hasn't been a resolution there yet. Ledeen shares where this is going. She shares what the big takeaway is from that meeting and what Israel hopes to achieve. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
