Israeli Strike Wounds Lebanese Soldier in Mansouri
๐๏ธ SOUTH LEBANON โ Israeli fire hits Lebanese army, not just Hezbollah. ๐ LOOK CLOSER: A wounded Lebanese soldier is categorically different from a Hezbollah casualty โ it implicates the Lebanese state directly, giving Beirut grounds to escalate formally. Rome talks were deemed productive; this strains whatever tacit understanding was reached. Arab states watching for Israeli restraint signals get the opposite. Washington's Hormuz deal needs regional quiet; each IDF action that bleeds a sovereign army makes that harder to hold.
