Israel hits Lebanon with deadly strikes, says four of its troops killed
Israel said it struck Hezbollah targets after repeated ceasefire violations as Lebanese officials reported at least 18 deaths and 33 wounded.
- Lebanon's health ministry announced that intense overnight Israeli airstrikes across several southern towns killed at least 18 people and wounded 33 others.
- The Israeli military reported that four of its own soldiers, including a battalion lieutenant colonel, were killed during what it described as highly concentrated, fierce ground fighting against Hezbollah forces in southern Lebanon.
- The sudden escalation of lethal hostilities has severely threatened a newly signed, United States-brokered ceasefire agreement with Iran that explicitly calls for an immediate and permanent halt to military operations across all regional fronts, including Lebanon.
- In response to the unchecked violence, Iran delayed sending its official diplomatic delegation to Switzerland for planned high-level talks with the United States regarding a broader, permanent resolution to the conflict.
- Despite international pressure from allies like France to respect the ceasefire terms, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reiterated that his country’s forces will maintain their military operations and occupied territories in southern Lebanon until the threat from Hezbollah is entirely neutralized.
