Israel-Gaza-Lebanon updates: Nasrallah killed for tying Hezbollah cause to Gaza war

Israel is preparing for a limited ground incursion into Lebanon, even after it killed around 30 top leaders within Hezbollah in recent weeks.

Israel has rejected a cease-fire proposal -- even a limited one -- in Lebanon, now bombing sites where there are suspected longer range missiles, according to a senior U.S. official. Israel is not listening to the Biden administration despite its repeated calls for a diplomatic solution.

Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah was killed in an Israeli strike on a residential building in Beirut on Friday.

The bomb used by Israel in Beirut on Friday very likely came from the U.S. as part of a larger military assistance program that’s been in place for decades.

The IDF described the bomb as a "bunker buster," a reference to the BLU-109 which was designed and manufactured to penetrate hardened underground bunkers.

The U.S. has used these massive 2,000-pound bombs before, typically in remote areas of countries like Afghanistan as a way to destroy enemy tunnels and underground command centers.

Use of the bunker-buster bombs in urban areas dramatically increases the risk of civilian casualties because it can turn entire neighborhoods into craters.

In May, President Joe Biden withheld a single shipment of 1,800 of these weapons to Israel out of concern Israel would use the bombs in Rafah, a highly populated area in Gaza where civilians were sheltering.

Officials say those bombs remain on hold, although Israel would likely have enough in stock for that single shipment not to make a significant tactical difference in its ongoing operations in Gaza and Lebanon.

Israel Defense Force announced another strike in Beirut Friday evening.

The IDF claimed it's targeting "weapons belonging to the Hezbollah terrorist organization that were stored beneath civilian buildings in the area of Dahieh in Beirut."

Israel Defense Force announced that its air force is now patrolling the Beirut airport area.

The IDF alleges that Lebanon "has not allowed the transfer of weapons through the civilian airport."

"We announce in advance: we will not allow hostile flights with weapons to land at the civil airport in Beirut. This is a civilian airport for civilian use, and it must be kept that way," the IDF said in a statement.
