In a significant escalation of hostilities, Israel has conducted multiple airstrikes on the southern suburbs of Beirut, just days after a US-brokered ceasefire agreement was reached. The strikes come in response to recent attacks from Hezbollah, which reportedly fired rockets towards northern Israel. Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have confirmed targeting Hezbollah positions, with claims of significant casualties among Hezbollah militants. The situation has led to evacuations in several villages in southern Lebanon, raising fears of broader regional conflict. Meanwhile, Iran has threatened retaliation following the strikes, intensifying tensions in an already volatile region. The international community remains watchful, with discussions in the UN Security Council prompted by the deteriorating conditions in Lebanon.
