The United States, with the White House's assistance, relayed a stern message from Israel to the Lebanese government in recent days. The message, approved by President Trump, stated that if Hezbollah attacks Israel on behalf of Iran in the event of a return to hostilities, Israel will undertake unprecedented actions within Lebanon. Lebanese media outlets with government ties reported that the message was conveyed through American diplomatic channels. It clearly communicated that neither Israel nor the United States will tolerate Hezbollah's involvement in any scenario of renewed conflict with Iran. Should the organization act against Israel or the U.S. in such a case, Israel has received a "bright green light" from the Trump administration to strike the Lebanese capital, Beirut, and to push IDF-controlled territory further north, even beyond the Litani River.
