Israel's Defense Minister Yoav Gallant has issued a warning to Hezbollah’s newly appointed leader, Naim Kassem, following a series of Israeli airstrikes targeting the group’s top leaders. Gallant shared a message on X, stating, "The appointment is temporary. The countdown has begun," accompanied by Kassem's photo. Kassem’s appointment follows the assassination of former Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in Beirut last month and Hashem Safieddine two weeks later, marking intensified Israeli efforts to dismantle Hezbollah’s leadership. Amid ongoing strikes in Lebanon and Gaza, Israel’s actions reflect heightened tensions in the Middle East.
