Israel on Sunday launched strikes targeting a top Hezbollah commander in Beirut, marking an expansion of its military campaign seeking to prevent the terrorist group from regaining power in Lebanon .

The strikes targeted Hezbollah ’s chief of staff, Ali Tabtabai, according to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu , who has warned that the terrorist group has made little progress on disarmament in violation of the ceasefire agreement Jerusalem and Hezbollah reached last year. The attacks on Beirut’s southern suburbs, known to be frequented by Hezbollah members, follow a series of Israeli air strikes in recent weeks against Lebanon, which borders Israel.
