The southern front experienced intense conflict amid an unprecedented escalation, marked by increased Israeli assassinations and continuous Hezbollah operations, aligning with statements from both sides about upcoming surprises.

Hezbollah claimed on Monday morning that it had targeted, in response to Israeli attacks on southern Lebanese villages and homes, a building used by Israeli soldiers in the Margaliot settlement.

Additionally, Hezbollah launched a focused attack on the Malikiya site with guided missiles and artillery, “hitting its defenses, equipment, and soldier positions.”

In retaliation, an Israeli drone strike targeted a motorcycle near Salah Ghandour Hospital in Bint Jbeil, resulting in one fatality and several injuries. The hospital sustained material damage from the blast, which shattered windows and damaged its exterior facilities.

Moreover, the Israeli Army reported that a “Sky Rider” drone crashed inside Lebanese territory, while an investigation is underway.

The Israeli warplanes bombed central Aytaroun and Haroun this morning. It also claimed to have targeted a building housing Hezbollah members in Yaroun and targeted Hezbollah personnel in Hula. It also struck a weapons storage facility in Mays al-Jabal and military infrastructure in Khiyam.

During the night, the Israeli Army fired numerous flares over villages in the Tyre and Bint Jbeil districts.

It launched several interceptor missiles over Naqoura, Alma al-Shaab, Tayr Harfa, and Dhayra, and conducted reconnaissance flights over the western and central sectors up to the Litani River.
