Israel says strikes Hezbollah intel HQ in Beirut
“SICKENING CYCLE”
The impact of the war was also felt in Syria, where the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitor said an Israeli strike in Damascus killed four people, including Hassan Jaafar al-Qasir, Nasrallah’s son-in-law.
Iranian media said a Revolutionary Guards military “adviser” in Syria, Majid Divani, succumbed Thursday to wounds sustained in an Israeli strike on Damascus earlier this week.
In Israel’s commercial hub Tel Aviv, Liron Yori, 22, said he was worried about “where the war’s going and I don’t feel comfortable with it”.
The fighting comes with many Israelis celebrating Thursday’s Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year.
