Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has sparked global outrage after publicly calling for the destruction of Lebanese cities in retaliation for Hezbollah drone attacks. Smotrich stated that Israel should destroy “10 buildings in Beirut for every drone fired,” before expanding attacks to Tyre, Sidon, and the Beqaa Valley. Critics say the statement amounts to an open endorsement of collective punishment as Lebanon’s death toll continues to rise amid escalating Israel-Hezbollah tensions.
