"Hezbollah Threatens Retaliation as Israeli Airstrikes Kill 10 Lebanese Civilians"

Israeli air strikes in southern Lebanon killed 10 civilians, including seven members of the same family in Nabatieh and a woman with her two children in as-Sawana, prompting Hezbollah to promise retaliation. The strikes came after projectiles from Lebanon killed an Israeli soldier, and a rocket barrage from Lebanon struck the northern Israeli town of Safed, killing another soldier and injuring eight people. In response, government institutions, schools, and the Lebanese University were closed in protest.

Israel retaliates with strikes in Syria, Lebanon, and Gaza after rocket attacks.

Israeli jets hit Syrian military targets in response to rockets launched towards Israeli controlled territory overnight. The Israeli military said artillery and drone strikes hit the rocket launchers and were followed by airstrikes against a Syrian army compound, military radar systems, and artillery posts. The Syrian defence ministry said its air defences had responded to the Israeli attacks and intercepted some Israeli missiles. The recent exchanges of cross-border fire have awakened memories of the 10-day war between Israel and Hamas in 2021.

Israel Strikes Syrian Military Targets in Response to Rocket Attacks.

Israel launched airstrikes against Syrian military targets in response to rockets fired towards Israeli-controlled territory. The Syrian defense ministry said its air defenses had responded to the Israeli attacks and intercepted some Israeli missiles. No casualties were reported. The rocket salvoes were claimed by Al-Quds Brigades, the armed wing of the Iranian-backed Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement. The cross-border exchanges came amid sharply increased tensions between Israel and Palestinian groups following Israeli police raids in recent days on Al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem.
