The terrible reality of war is becoming so commonplace that even the Western media is forgetting the genocide in Gaza, and concentrating its informative -or disinformative- fire on the Israeli attacks against Lebanon.
Israel, meanwhile, is leading the world down a narrow path towards the precipice, and few now rule out what has been predicted for many years: the Middle East will be the scene of the next world war.
The UN Special Coordinator for Lebanon, Jeanine Hennis-Plasschaert, warned this Sunday of an "imminent catastrophe" in the region, in the midst of the escalation of tensions between Israel and the Shiite group Hezbollah.
Meanwhile, Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla, through his account in X, said: "We condemn Israel's cowardly aggression against Lebanon, in a southern suburb of Beirut, which has caused 37 deaths and dozens of wounded, including women and children. This repudiatory act jeopardizes peace and security in the region, already convulsed by the Israeli genocide against the Palestinian people."
In recent days, Israel has bombed and launched missiles against civilian buildings in Beirut, the Lebanese capital, with dozens of people killed and some 2,500 wounded as a result of these aggressions.
Two days earlier, on September 17 and 18, explosions of electronic devices, including pagers and walkie-talkies, occurred in different parts of Lebanon, attacks that the UN called war crimes.
Coinciding with the prediction of a forthcoming world conflagration in the area, the Israeli government, headed by the bloodthirsty Benjamin Netanyahu, has publicly congratulated itself for several of its assassinations, thus confirming the terrorist nature of its actions, based on the sophisticated techniques developed by its intelligence agencies.
The international community, and especially the United Nations and other institutions created to build peace, cannot cease to insist on their pronouncements condemning Israel, and those who support it with money and weapons, the United States.
Every day that passes seems too late, for in the short term there is no end in sight to the genocide against the Palestinians, nor to Israel's deliberate assassinations in Iran, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon and other countries.
