Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered the military to strike targets in Beirut's Dahiyeh suburb on June 1, 2026, marking the collapse of an already-fraying April ceasefire with Hezbollah and triggering Iran's immediate suspension of negotiations with the United States. The escalation — which follows the IDF's capture of Beaufort Castle in southern Lebanon and months of strikes that have killed over 3,000 Lebanese — now threatens to widen into a regional confrontation, with Iran vowing to close the Strait of Hormuz and U.S. Central Command intercepting Iranian ballistic missiles aimed at Kuwait.
