Israel has broadened its military offensive in Lebanon, launching strikes in Beirut for the first time in nearly a month and intensifying operations in the southern region. The Israeli military confirmed a strike in the Lebanese capital, which reportedly hit an apartment building in a Hezbollah-dominated area. In the past 24 hours, Israeli forces targeted over 135 Hezbollah sites, including rocket launch sites and training camps, many of which were in residential neighborhoods, resulting in civilian casualties. Notably, an attack near Sidon claimed the lives of six people, including a mother and her two children. The conflict has escalated, with Hezbollah continuing to attack Israeli troops, particularly around the town of Zawtar al-Sharqiyah, close to the Israeli border. This surge in violence complicates ongoing U.S.-Iran negotiations aimed at resolving the war in Iran, as Iran demands an end to Israeli strikes against its ally Hezbollah. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has indicated that military operations will deepen, casting doubt on whether the conflict in Lebanon will be included in any potential peace agreement.
