Israel-Hezbollah Conflict Escalates with High Casualties

Recent Israeli airstrikes across Lebanon have killed multiple Hezbollah fighters and civilians, escalating tensions further in the region. Lebanon's health ministry reported that seven people died in southern Lebanon, including a child, due to Israeli drone strikes, with Hezbollah confirming three of its fighters among the dead. Hezbollah has retaliated by launching rockets at Israeli military posts, including the strategic Meron base. The conflict has led to significant casualties, with over 600 people killed in Lebanon, primarily Hezbollah fighters and civilians. Additionally, Israeli forces targeted Fatah commander Khalil al-Maqdah near Sidon, accusing him of working with Iran's Revolutionary Guards to support terror activities in the West Bank. Diplomatic efforts for a ceasefire continue amid fears of a wider regional conflict.
