Israel destroys Hezbollah tunnels in Lebanon, informed US before strike

Israel has destroyed Hezbollah underground infrastructure and tunnels located in southern Lebanon. Prior to executing these strikes, Israel informed the US of the operation. These military actions signal heightened regional tensions, which are currently reducing the prospects for a near-term peace deal. Consequently, this escalation in the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah is negatively impacting market confidence as the situation in the region remains volatile following the destruction of the tunnels.
