Israel warns Lebanon against Hezbollah joining any US-Iran war: Lebanese officials to Reuters

Two senior Lebanese officials said Tuesday that Israel had sent an indirect message to Lebanon warning it would strike the country forcefully and target civilian infrastructure, including the airport, if Hezbollah takes part in any U.S.-Iran war.

The offices of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Lebanese President Joseph Aoun did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
