Israeli Shelling Kills Hussein Mansour, The Mayor Of Lebanese Hamlet

On Monday, an Israeli shell killed the mayor of a Lebanese hamlet Hussein Mansour as Israel and Lebanon’s Hezbollah maintained hostilities sparked by the Gaza war.

According to Hussein Mansour’s relative Mohamed Mansour, the mayor was assassinated in his home in the village of Taybeh a few kilometres (miles) from the Israeli border.

As per the report, the shell that hit him did not explode.

On Sunday, violence erupted along Lebanon’s border with Israel, with the Iran-backed Hezbollah launching explosive drones and ballistic missiles at Israeli positions, and Israeli air strikes rocking several towns and villages in southern Lebanon.

An Israeli government spokesperson accused Hezbollah of escalating its aggression after a Hezbollah official indicated on Sunday that Israel has upped its attacks in Lebanon.

Eylon Levy, Israeli spokesperson stated, “We will respond firmly to any continued aggression and we repeat that Israel is not interested in a two-front war but if Hezbollah decides to drag Israel into a full-scale war, the consequences will be severe for Hezbollah and the state of Lebanon”.
