"IDF and Hezbollah Exchange Fire at Lebanon Border Amidst Israel-Hamas Conflict"

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) claim to have dismantled Hamas's military framework in northern Gaza, with significant casualties reported. Amidst the conflict, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken is on a Middle East tour to prevent regional escalation, engaging with leaders in Turkey, Greece, and other nations. The war has led to a humanitarian crisis in Gaza, with a high death toll and a UN official declaring the area uninhabitable. Tensions have also risen with Hezbollah firing rockets into Israel in retaliation for the killing of a senior Hamas official in Beirut, raising concerns of a broader regional conflict. International efforts for de-escalation continue as the situation remains volatile.
