Israel has launched a fresh wave of airstrikes across South Lebanon as tensions with Hezbollah continue to escalate despite a 45-day US-backed ceasefire agreement. The Israeli military says more than 30 Hezbollah-linked targets were struck within just 24 hours after multiple drone and rocket launches from southern Lebanon reportedly crossed into Israeli territory. The renewed violence comes amid rising fears of a wider Middle East conflict, with US-Iran tensions continuing to grow and diplomatic efforts struggling to hold the fragile truce together. Israeli airstrikes reportedly targeted several locations across South Lebanon, while Hezbollah claimed new retaliatory attacks, including strikes linked to Israel’s Iron Dome defense system. WATCH

The fragile ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah appears to be collapsing as fresh Israeli airstrikes hit multiple locations across Southern Lebanon and areas near Beirut. At least six people were reportedly killed and several others injured after overnight strikes targeted residential zones, triggering panic among civilians already exhausted by months of conflict. Hospitals in Tyre received wounded civilians as rescue teams rushed through devastated neighborhoods following the attacks. Lebanon’s death toll has now reportedly crossed 2,800 as cross-border hostilities continue to intensify. Lebanese leaders have urged international intervention and called on the United States envoy in Beirut to pressure Israel over alleged ceasefire violations. Meanwhile, the Israeli military has also reported fresh troop casualties near the Lebanon border as military operations continue to expand.
