Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah said in a speech that "the Americans threatened Lebanon that if the southern front is not stopped, Israel will start a war."
According to him, "Washington's intimidation will not help – neither today nor tomorrow. The one who should be afraid of war is Israel. We have been ready for war for 99 days and are not afraid of it."
Nasrallah also said that the U.S. should also understand that the situation in the Red Sea and the developments in Iraq and Lebanon all depend on stopping the war in Gaza, and added that the U.S. attacks in the Red Sea will harm all maritime traffic.
An apparent drone attack - claimed by the Iranian-backed Houthi militia - hit central Tel Aviv in the early hours of Friday, killing one man and slightly wounding four others, the Israeli military and emergency services said.
Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant told his U.S. counterpart that military operations in the Gaza Strip have created conditions that would enable a hostage deal to be reached, Gallant's office said on Wednesday.
A meeting of the United Nations Security Council on the Middle East was briefly interrupted on Wednesday when two protesters stood with signs and yelled for the release of Israeli hostages held by Palestinian militants Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
