Israel and Hezbollah Exchange Rocket Fire

In a significant escalation of hostilities, Hezbollah launched a barrage of rockets into northern Israel, targeting military bases including the Ramat David airbase, prompting widespread air raid sirens and sending tens of thousands of residents to shelters. Israeli defenses intercepted most of the incoming projectiles, resulting in only minor injuries and some property damage. This attack followed extensive Israeli airstrikes on Hezbollah positions in southern Lebanon, which reportedly struck over 400 targets, including launchers and terrorist infrastructure. The increased rocket fire marks a notable uptick in tensions along Israel's northern border, where fears of a broader regional conflict are growing. As the conflict continues, Hezbollah has confirmed the death of a senior commander, highlighting the high stakes involved. The situation remains volatile, with both sides poised for further military actions.
