Dozens of people, including children, have been killed in an intensive wave of Israeli strikes across southern and eastern Lebanon, following Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's vow to escalate military action against Hezbollah. The Israeli military reported hitting over 100 Hezbollah infrastructure sites and fighters, describing it as one of the heaviest bombardments since a mid-April ceasefire. Netanyahu stated Israel is deepening its operation in Lebanon to fortify a security zone and protect northern Israeli communities.

  • Lebanon's health ministry reported at least 31 deaths in the latest attacks, with some strikes hitting near the UNESCO-recognized Beaufort Castle.
  • The intensified strikes follow Netanyahu's instructions to "press the pedal even harder" against Hezbollah, with Israel deepening its operations in Lebanon.
  • Ceasefire violations by both sides continue to threaten ongoing negotiations to end the war between the US, Israel, and Iran.
  • Air strikes specifically targeted the Bekaa Valley village of Mashghara and Burj al-Shamali in southern Lebanon, causing destruction and displacement.
  • The Israeli military also announced the killing of Muhammad Odeh, identified as a senior figure in Hamas’s military wing, in an operation in Gaza.
