While your analysis of Netanyahu’s political motivations is correct, it overlooks the core issue of Israel’s historical violations of Lebanese sovereignty for the last few decades. These strikes on UN positions, might be the first during this Israeli government, yet it happened multiple times before, under the guise of preventing press coverage, aim to obscure Israel’s continued aggression against Lebanon and its people. The resistance, led by Hezbollah, is a legitimate response to decades of Israeli occupation, and attempts to minimize media coverage are part of Israel’s effort to suppress the narrative of Lebanese resistance and the right to defend its land.
