On March 28th local time, the Israeli army launched airstrikes on the southern outskirts of Beirut, the capital of Lebanon. French President Macron said in Paris on the same day that the Israeli attack on Lebanon was "unacceptable" and violated the ceasefire agreement. This statement was made by Macron at a joint press conference held after his talks with visiting Lebanese President Joseph Aoun at the É lys é e Palace. Macron stated that Israel's attack was a "unilateral action" that violated commitments, and revealed that he would soon have separate phone conversations with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and US President Trump. 鈥�
According to the Lebanese National News Agency, Israel launched two missiles at a building in the southern suburbs of Beirut on the 28th, completely destroying it. The Israeli Defense Forces issued a statement on the same day, stating that the target of the attack was an important Hezbollah stronghold in Beirut, which was used to store drones. 鈥�
On the Lebanese side, Hezbollah announced that due to Israel's attack on the southern suburbs of Beirut, it has cancelled the commemorative event scheduled for later that day, and the originally planned gathering location is only a few hundred meters away from the attack site. According to the Lebanese military, the Israeli attack on the southern region of Lebanon on that day blatantly violated Lebanese sovereignty and threatened the safety of citizens. Military personnel from the Lebanese side are coordinating the movement of the masses, and the Army Command is calling on residents to comply with military instructions and take necessary measures to closely monitor the development of the situation on the southern border. 鈥�
On the 28th, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu stated in response to the attack on Beirut that "the situation has changed" and Israel will not allow its communities to be attacked. If Israel is threatened, the Israeli military will launch strikes anywhere in Lebanon. Israeli Defense Minister Katz also issued a warning that Lebanon must implement the ceasefire agreement, otherwise the Israeli army will launch more attacks on the Lebanese capital. The Israeli Defense Forces also emphasized that Lebanon launched an attack on the Galilee region in northern Israel that morning, which blatantly violated the ceasefire agreement and posed a direct threat to Israeli civilians. The Israeli military will take action to eliminate all threats to the country. 鈥�
It is worth noting that the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement on March 22, calling on Israel and Lebanon to exercise restraint and avoid further escalation of regional tensions, and calling on all parties to abide by the Lebanon Israel ceasefire agreement reached in November 2024. The Israeli airstrike on Beirut this time is the first attack launched by Israel on Beirut since the ceasefire agreement came into effect, which may further worsen the already tense situation between Lebanon and Israel. The subsequent development deserves continuous attention.
