Israeli warplanes conducted multiple airstrikes across southern Lebanon and unleashed artillery strikes against targets in the region, the Shehab Wire reported. Ground forces simultaneously advanced into the town of Kafr Shuba, marking a significant intensification of military operations along the border.
The United Nations peacekeeping mission UNIFIL warned of deteriorating conditions on the ground, cautioning that the situation had become increasingly fragile. The force called on all parties to adhere to UN Security Council Resolution 1701, which has governed the ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah since 2006. The escalation unfolded in the early morning hours.
