21.09.2024 โ‡ข The Day Hezbollah Was Struck
โŒจAn Israeli airstrike in Beirut killed top Hezbollah commanders, with the death toll rising to 37 throughout the day. This escalated tensions in the region, prompting concerns of wider conflict. Israel launched further strikes against Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon, while the U.S. called for calm. In domestic news, Kamala Harris accepted an invitation to a second presidential debate, which Trump declined, citing late timing. Harris's campaign fundraising tripled Trump's in August. The Arizona Supreme Court ruled that 98,000 voters whose citizenship was in question could receive full ballots. Reports surfaced of RFK Jr.'s alleged past affairs, adding another layer to the ongoing political drama. The day ended with increased focus on Middle East tensions and evolving campaign dynamics.
