Israel warned on June 6 that it will keep striking Lebanon until it disarms militant group Hezbollah, hours after it hit south Beirut in what Lebanese leaders called a major ceasefire violation. The attack on what the Israeli military said was Hezbollah's underground drone factories came on the eve of Eid al-Adha, one of the main religious festivals on the Muslim calendar.
