Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah killed by Israeli airstrike in Lebanon's capital Beirut
A predawn strike Friday in the mainly Sunni border town of Chebaa hit a home, killing nine members of the same family, the state news agency said. A resident identified the dead as Hussein Zahra, his wife Ratiba, their five children and two of their grandchildren.
The scope of Israel's operation in Lebanon remains unclear, but officials have said a ground invasion to push the militant group away from the border is a possibility. Israel has moved thousands of troops toward the border in preparation.
Hopes for cease-fires dwindle
In a possible early sign of the strikes' significance, Netanyahu abruptly cut short a visit to the United States to return home on Friday instead of waiting until the end of Sabbath on Saturday evening, his office said. Israeli politicians do not normally travel on the Sabbath except for matters of great import.
Hours earlier, Netanyahu addressed the U.N., vowing that Israel's campaign against Hezbollah would continue — further dimming hopes for an internationally backed cease-fire. Several delegates stood up and walked out before he gave his address.
The Pentagon said the U.S. had no advance warning of the strikes.
The White House said President Biden was briefed by his national security team "several times" on Friday and "has directed the Pentagon to assess and adjust as necessary U.S. force posture in the region to enhance deterrence, ensure force protection, and support the full range of U.S. objectives. He has also directed his team to ensure that U.S. embassies in the region take all protective measures as appropriate."

"The events of the past week and the past few hours underscore what a precarious moment this is for the Middle East and for the world," Secretary of State Antony Blinken said at a news conference Friday in New York, before Israel announced Nasrallah's death. "Israel has the right to defend itself against terrorism. The way it does so matters. The choices that all parties make in the coming days will determine which path this region is on, with profound consequences for its people now and possibly for years to come."
At the U.N., Netanyahu vowed to "continue degrading Hezbollah" until Israel achieves its goals. His comments dampened hopes for a U.S.-backed call for a 21-day truce between Israel and Hezbollah to allow time for a diplomatic solution. Hezbollah has not responded to the proposal.
