Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant this week said that the rising tensions with Hezbollah at the Lebanese border is bringing them closer to a military escalation against the Iran-backed paramilitary group. A Lebanese newspaper with connections to Hezbollah claims Israel gave them a date of March 15th to stop the cross border attacks or they will begin operations against them. The United States and France have both recently sent diplomats to Beirut to try and calm the situation and prevent a broader conflict.

FOX's Eben Brown speaks with David Daoud, Senior Fellow at the non-partisan Foundation for Defense of Democracies and Hezbollah expert, who says while Hezbollah gets their marching orders from Iran, Lebanon is also using the terror group to force concessions from Israel.
