Tensions between Israel, Hezbollah ‘extremely dangerous’: US State Department

US State Department spokeswoman Matthew Miller described current tensions between Israel and Hezbollah as “extremely dangerous”.

The US is purportedly working to contain the violence between the two sides Miller said, in a bid to avoid an all-out war.

Miller said that a ceasefire in Gaza “would help us reach calm in northern Israel and southern Lebanon”. 

The current situation between Israel and Hezbollah is “untenable".
