Israel conducts airstrikes before ceasefire vote on Hezbollah
Israel intensifies airstrikes on Beirut ahead of ceasefire vote as tensions with Hezbollah escalate.
Israel conducted heavy airstrikes on Beirut on Tuesday, shortly before a vote on a possible ceasefire with Hezbollah.
Smoke was seen rising from various locations in southern Beirut as Israeli warplanes targeted 20 Hezbollah sites. Residents were advised to evacuate prior to what became one of the most intense attacks on the city.
In response, Hezbollah fired projectiles into Israel.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s security cabinet was set to meet to consider a US-proposed 60-day truce. Approval of the plan could enable an immediate ceasefire, but significant changes would require Hezbollah’s agreement.
National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, part of Netanyahu’s cabinet, opposes the deal, advocating for continued military action against Hezbollah. Some mayors from northern Israeli towns, affected by Hezbollah attacks, share this sentiment.
Despite Ben-Gvir’s opposition, Netanyahu is likely to secure enough support for a ceasefire agreement.
Details of the full proposal remain undisclosed but generally require Hezbollah forces to move north of the Litani River, approximately 30 kilometers from the Israeli border.

Greenland says “No” to U.S. takeover — Chooses Denmark in geopolitical showdown
Greenland’s PM chooses Denmark over U.S. amid Trump’s controversy over Arctic control, emphasizing sovereignty and local sentiment.
Greenland’s PM chooses Denmark over U.S. amid Trump’s controversy over Arctic control, emphasizing sovereignty and local sentiment.
Greenland’s Prime Minister Jens‑Frederik Nielsen has delivered a clear message amid renewed pressure from the U.S. — if forced to choose between the United States and Denmark, Greenland will pick Denmark, NATO, and the EU.
Nielsen made the declaration in Copenhagen alongside Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen ahead of diplomatic talks with top U.S. officials.
The announcement comes as U.S. President Donald Trump has again stoked controversy by suggesting Washington could pursue ownership or control of Greenland, citing strategic interests in the Arctic. European leaders and Greenlandic officials have pushed back strongly against these ideas, emphasising sovereignty and respect for international law.
This standoff places Greenland’s future in the spotlight — as Copenhagen and Nuuk reaffirm their ties, local sentiment remains overwhelmingly opposed to U.S. annexation and supportive of Greenland’s own path forward.
