even though israel has rejected any involvement in this attack but also the attack here on friday in beruit command chain of hezbollah's main fighting unit, an air strike that hit a residential building here in beirut. i was talking to some hezbollah supporters and they remain defiant. they say these israeli attacks will not affect their positions, they will continue to resist. i think this shows you the feeling among some hezbollah supporters. but obviously across the country, the view here and the fear is that hezbollah is dragging lebanon into a conflict with israel that is not in the country's interest, a conflict that could be devastating for this country which has suffered so much over the years.|t's the addressing the recent escalation between hezbollah and israel, mr lammy said it was "worrying" and he told british nationals in lebanon to "leave now". in recent days we have seen a worrying escalation. this is a nobody�*s interest. 0ur message to all parties is clear, we need an immediate ceasefire from both sides so that we can get to a political settlement. so israelis and lebanese
