Pro-Iran Hezbollah's Attack Drone Enters North Israel; Residents Run For Cover Amid Screams

Italy steps into the escalating Middle East crisis with a strong and direct message. Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has urged Israel to halt its military escalation in Lebanon, while reaffirming support for the Lebanese government’s sovereignty and efforts to disarm Hezbollah. Rome has also raised serious concerns over the safety of UN peacekeepers, stressing the need to protect the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon, where Italy has played a key role for decades. Meloni warned that continued escalation could trigger a massive displacement crisis, potentially fueling new migratory flows toward Europe—adding another layer of urgency to an already volatile situation.
