Former Israeli PM concerned about West Bank violence escalation

The head of the Israeli Air Force's precision strike unit has revealed the details of the attack that resulted in the death of the "chief of staff" of the Lebanese Hezbollah group.

The UN Human Rights Office expressed extreme alarm at the killing of two Palestinians by Israeli security forces in the occupied West Bank. The incidents occurred during clashes in the Hebron and Nablus areas. The office called for immediate and impartial investigations and regretted the loss of life.

The Israeli Army bombed Hezbollah infrastructure in southern Lebanon on the anniversary of the ceasefire. Israeli authorities state their targets were weapons warehouses and positions used for planning attacks. The UN has documented thousands of truce violations.
