29.10.2024The day Hezbollah elected a new leader

Hezbollah elected Sheikh Naim Qassem as its new Secretary General, following reports of Hassan Nasrallah's death a month ago. This development came amidst ongoing Israeli strikes in Lebanon, with severe attacks reported in the Bekaa Valley and southern regions. Diplomatic efforts continued, with talks of a potential 60-day truce and U.S. envoy Amos Hochstein expected to visit the region. Israel's defense minister vowed Qassem's tenure would be short-lived. The conflict intensified with Israeli tanks reportedly entering Khiam's outskirts. Civilian casualties mounted, with at least 60 reported killed in Bekaa and multiple fatalities in strikes on Sidon. The U.S. warned Iran of "severe consequences" if it attacks Israel again, while negotiations for a ceasefire in Gaza continued in parallel.
