Biden urged Lebanon truce, US official says Israeli incursion could be imminent

“We will use all the means that may be required – your forces, other forces, from the air, from the sea, and on land. Good luck,” Gallant said.

The Biden administration fears the killing of Nasrallah and further Israeli military action could ignite a wider regional conflict.

The US envoy to the United Nations urged continued diplomacy to halt the violence in Lebanon and Gaza.

“We want to find a path to peace so that Palestinians and Israelis have safety and Lebanese and Israelis living on the northern border find security and safety as well,” US Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield told reporters.
