The Middle East is on edge as tensions between Israel and Iran intensify. Israel has initiated a ground offensive in Lebanon targeting Hezbollah, aiming to dismantle its attack infrastructure and eliminate its leader, Hassan Nasrallah.

This has led to a mass exodus of Lebanese civilians to Syria and the evacuation of foreign nationals by several countries. Iran responded with a barrage of missiles targeting Israeli cities, resulting in casualties and widespread alarm.

The United States has voiced strong support for Israel's right to self-defense, while European leaders have condemned Iran's aggression. In response, Israel has vowed powerful retaliatory strikes across the region.

The evolving crisis underscores the fragile stability in the Middle East and the far-reaching implications of regional hostilities.
