Iran has begun an attack against Israel that has set off alarms throughout the country and put the population under refuge.

Hezbollah is a central component of Iran’s so-called “axis of resistance,” which also includes other militant groups such as Hamas, and whose mission is to counter Israel’s influence in the Middle East.
