Israel and Hezbollah on the brink of war after rocket attack kills 12 children

Israeli officials have said they want to avoid a war in Lebanon in retaliation.

Israel has struck Hezbollah targets and threatened further retaliation for the rocket attack that killed 12 people. But Israel has also signaled it is open to a proposed ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, which could calm its explosive front with Lebanon.


A rocket explosion on the Golan Heights on Saturday killed 12 people, Israel's deadliest incident of civilian casualties since Hamas overran southern villages and military bases on October 7.

The rocket attack hit a soccer field, killing children between the ages of 10 and 16, local officials said.

Israel claims Hezbollah fired an Iranian Falak-1 missile, but the Iran-backed group said it had "nothing to do" with the incident. The rocket attack has raised fears that conflict between Israel and Hezbollah could escalate further.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced he would demand a "heavy price" from Hezbollah. He has held several meetings with his security ministers and military chiefs to decide how to proceed.

The United States condemned the missile attack and called on all parties involved to show restraint.

But Iran has warned that any new "adventure" by Israeli forces in Lebanon could lead to "unforeseen consequences".

Israel has said it cannot compromise with an enemy that has vowed to destroy it and is on the West's terrorist blacklist. But domestic pressure to release the hostages is growing, and the Israeli army, which relies on conscripts and reservists, is exhausted.

Some Israeli officials reportedly support a ceasefire in Gaza in which Hezbollah promises not to attack Israel.

Israel launched a war with Hamas after the October 7 attacks that killed 1,200 people in southern Israel and took 250 hostages in Gaza. The Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry said the death toll in Gaza had topped 39,000.

Hezbollah was much more powerful than Hamas before October 7 and has more fighter jets, missiles and drones. Officials from both countries said a war would probably be devastating for both Lebanon and Israel.
