Escalating Tensions: Israel and Lebanon Exchange Fire on Border

Missiles were fired from southern Lebanon at an Israeli kibbutz on the northern border, prompting the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) to respond with artillery shelling. The skirmishes between the IDF and Hezbollah continue amid the ongoing war in Gaza. Hezbollah has launched numerous attacks, including anti-tank guided missiles, rockets, and mortars, targeting Israeli military positions and towns. In response, the IDF carried out airstrikes against Hezbollah positions in southern Lebanon. The attacks from Lebanon come as Israel is engaged in a conflict with Hamas in Gaza. The escalating situation has led to the evacuation of communities near the Lebanese border, and there are concerns about the war widening and involving Iran and Hezbollah.
