Hezbollah's Nasrallah Urges De-escalation in Israel-Gaza Conflict

Hezbollah leader Hasan Nasrallah called for a ceasefire in Gaza and held off on announcing a broader conflict with Israel, bringing relief to Lebanon. Nasrallah claimed that Hamas's attack on Israel was carried out without Hezbollah or Iran's knowledge. However, he also stated that all options were on the table for intensifying the conflict if the crisis in Gaza deepens. Nasrallah blamed the United States for the current situation and warned of the possibility of a broader war. The war in Lebanon is currently limited to the southern region, with over 70 deaths reported. Nasrallah's speech eased fears of Lebanon entering a wider confrontation with Israel, but the situation remains tense.
