Israel has intensified its military operations in Lebanon, targeting Hezbollah infrastructure and increasing strikes in Beirut. The military issued evacuation warnings for seven neighborhoods in the southern suburbs of the Lebanese capital before conducting strikes.
Defense Minister Israel Katz has ordered troops to destroy all bridges over Lebanon’s Litani River and escalate the demolition of homes near the Israeli border, raising concerns about a potential expansion of a military buffer zone.
These actions come as Hezbollah continues to launch attacks, reportedly in response to the conflict involving the US and Israel, with increased Israeli troop presence in southern Lebanon. The military stated it is stepping up attacks on Hezbollah-owned infrastructure in Beirut.
