The Israeli army has announced further strikes on Hezbollah targets in Lebanon following the killing of a senior Hezbollah commander. The attacks aimed at disrupting planned assaults on Israeli territory, resulting in significant casualties.
On the previous day, Israeli forces killed at least 16 Hezbollah fighters, including Ibrahim Akil, the commander of the elite Radwan unit. Akil and other commanders were allegedly planning an infiltration and attack on northern Israeli communities.
The Lebanese Health Ministry reported a total of 31 fatalities, including children. The Israeli military emphasized that the strikes targeted those responsible for planning operations against Israel.
Despite these aggressive actions, Israeli officials stated they do not seek a broader conflict in Lebanon. The region remains tense, with Hezbollah and Hamas suffering heavy losses.
The recent violence has resulted in thousands of internal displacements on both sides of the border. The ongoing conflict has drawn international attention, with various global powers expressing their positions.
While some support Israel’s right to self-defense, others have condemned the actions as violations of international law. The situation remains volatile, with the potential for further escalation.
