United States Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin said on Tuesday that he believes that an all-out war between Hezbollah and Israel is “not inevitable” after an alleged militant group’s attack on the Golan Heights, which killed 12 Israeli citizens. Speaking at a press conference in Manila, Austin stressed that Washington seeks to see the Israel-Hezbollah conflict resolved by diplomatic means. Previously, the Associated Press reported that Hezbollah started to move “smart precision-guided missiles” for potential use against Israel after Israel’s security cabinet authorized Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant to decide when and how the country will respond to Hezbollah’s deadly attack..
