Hillel Bitton Rosen, a senior Israeli official, said that as long as rocket fire on northern Israel continues, the government must strike Beirut — regardless of negotiations between the US and Iran. His remarks mark the third time this morning Hezbollah has launched attacks toward the north, according to Israeli reports.
Hillel Bitton Rosen, identified as a senior official, stated in a published remark that the government must fulfill its security commitment to northern residents by striking Beirut, irrespective of ongoing US-Iran negotiations. 'Despite attacks, falling rockets, and sirens on our territory — we still haven't struck Beirut, and we must do that with no connection to the talks between the US and Iran,' he said. The statement comes after Hezbollah launched its third barrage toward northern Israel this morning, a pattern that has drawn increasing criticism of government policy. As The Zioneer previously reported, similar criticism from Bitton Rosen was published on June 3 and June 9, calling for a harsher Israeli response. The nature of the 'third attack' reported by the source remains unspecified — whether rockets, drones, or mortar fire — and no official IDF confirmation or casualty figures have been released at this time.
