Israel intensifies military strikes against Hezbollah in Lebanon and Iran

The Israeli military has significantly escalated its attacks against Hezbollah, launching strikes on the group's positions in southern Lebanon and on Iranian targets. The IDF says it has hit Hezbollah operatives, rocket launchers, and storage facilities, and has published footage of some of these operations.

Israeli officials have also threatened to expand ground operations in Lebanon. In a separate but related development, Israeli strikes reportedly hit targets in Tehran, including an air defense factory and a space research center, which Israel links to Iran's support for Hezbollah.
