Middle East: Israel strike near Beirut hospital kills 13 DW 10/22/2024
Briefly

The United Nations condemned the recent airstrikes by Israel, which were aimed at Hezbollah’s financial operations linked to the firm Al-Qard Al-Hassan, amidst heightened tensions.
Israel's focus has shifted towards Hezbollah's finance system, following the assassination of a top figure in the group, as part of a broader strategy to disrupt their operations.
While Lebanon's prime minister acknowledged that UN Resolution 1701 is the only solution, he suggested that new understandings could exist to enhance its implementation amid the conflict.
The resolution, designed to curb Hezbollah’s influence post-war, has been disputed by Israel, which claims Hezbollah has fortified its military position near the Israeli border.
