Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held a phone call with US President Donald Trump after a significant security cabinet meeting focused on Israel's military actions in Lebanon. This meeting comes as Israel intensifies its military campaign, launching one of its most lethal attacks since a fragile ceasefire began in April, resulting in at least 31 fatalities and 40 injuries, including women and children. The Israeli military has begun ground operations beyond the 'Yellow Line,' which marks the northern edge of its self-declared security zone in southern Lebanon. An Israeli official stated that these targeted operations aim to push Hezbollah's drone infrastructure further from the border to mitigate direct threats. Netanyahu asserted that the Israeli army is deploying substantial forces to secure strategically important positions and reinforce the security buffer zone to protect northern Israeli communities. The situation remains tense, with reports of ongoing violence and accusations of massacres from Lebanon's Health Ministry.
