Today, the Israeli air force announced at around 9 AM that it was initiating a fresh round of attacks in Lebanon, targeting eleven communities in the south, including Haboush, Naqoura, Qlaila and Arabsalim. Concurrently, the frequency of Israeli airstrikes increased in the southern and Bekaa regions, as the Israeli army declared it had intercepted a rocket fired from Lebanon toward Tel Aviv.
In response, Hezbollah announced the firing of a Qadir-1 ballistic missile aimed at Mossad headquarters in the outskirts of Tel Aviv . The pro-Iranian group claimed in a statement that the targeted base “is responsible for blowing up pagers and walkie-talkies and for assassinating commanders.”
The Israeli army also urged residents of border villages in Lebanon to stay away from their homes. Meanwhile, the Lebanese Red Cross issued an urgent plea through X for blood donations of all kinds due to the rising number of casualties.
Today, Israeli airstrikes on the village of Al-Qantara resulted in the death of photojournalist Kamel Karaki from Al-Manar TV. Following airstrikes on the town of Jiyeh, the Beirut-South highway was cut off because of the accumulation of rocks and rubble, forcing traffic to be redirected to the Jiyeh Sea Road.
Last night, Israel conducted a series of violent raids on southern Lebanon, targeting the suburbs of Houmen and Rumain in Iqlim al-Tuffah and Yater. Earlier that day, at around 3:00 PM, an Israeli airstrike hit a residential building in Ghobeiri, causing three floors to collapse. The specialized search and rescue teams of the General Directorate of Civil Defense completed their operations and conducted a comprehensive field survey at the site. According to a final toll issued by the Directorate, six people died and fifteen were injured.
As the situation continues to escalate, both sides remain on high alert, with the humanitarian impact becoming increasingly severe.
