Israel has launched a series of air raids on southern Lebanon, targeting several towns amid escalating tensions with Hezbollah. The Israeli military said it struck approximately 100 rocket-launchers and other infrastructure in an effort to create safe conditions near its border with Lebanon. In response, Hezbollah has vowed to retaliate, with leader Hassan Nasrallah denouncing recent attacks on its members in Lebanon and Syria. The group has suffered casualties from device explosions that were implanted with explosives and detonated remotely.
The conflict between Israel and Hezbollah has intensified in recent weeks, with both sides exchanging fire and increasing threats of a larger military operation. White House spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre has called for a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas to reduce tensions in the region while remaining vigilant against any Iran-backed threats. Meanwhile, a preliminary investigation by Lebanese authorities has found that the devices used in recent attacks were implanted with explosives before arriving in the country.
The ongoing conflict between Israel and Hezbollah is rooted in long-standing tensions and territorial disputes. Both sides have suffered casualties and are determined to continue fighting until their demands are met. The international community remains concerned about the escalating situation and is calling for restraint and dialogue to prevent further violence and instability.
