Smoke rises following an Israeli airstrike in the Gaza Strip, as seen from southern Israel. More than 9,200 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza so far, mostly women and minors, and more and than 23,000 people have been wounded, the Gaza Health Ministry said, without providing a breakdown between civilians and fighters. Renewed fighting could also risk drawing Iran, which backs both Hamas and Hezbollah, into the conflict. The two enemies fought an inconclusive monthlong war in 2006. Israel has promised to unleash vast destruction in Lebanon if all-out war erupts, accusing Hezbollah of hiding its military installation in the midst of residential areas. Hezbollah is much stronger than Hamas, with an arsenal of some 150,000 rockets and missiles, some believed to be precision-guided weapons capable of striking deep inside Israel.

A war with Hezbollah would be devastating for both Israel and Lebanon.

Since Israel’s war with Hamas began, Hezbollah has taken calculated steps to keep Israel’s military busy on the country’s border with Lebanon but so far has done nothing to ignite an all-out war.
