The Israel Defense Forces targeted over 10 Hezbollah sites in Beirut's southern suburbs to degrade militant capabilities after coordinated missile attacks by Iran and Hezbollah.

- Vowing to continue until 'the shadow of war is lifted,' the IRGC has escalated to the 40th wave as the Pentagon reported $5.6 billion in munitions costs and the CBO was asked to analyze war expenses.
