Israel and Hezbollah Engage in Heavy Fire Amid Major Escalation | CISNewsStudio1s

In a significant escalation, Israel launched a wave of pre-emptive strikes across southern Lebanon on Sunday morning to prevent a large-scale rocket and drone attack by Hezbollah. Israel’s military reported that its jets destroyed thousands of rocket launchers belonging to the Iran-backed group.

Despite the strikes, Hezbollah claimed it managed to retaliate by firing 320 rockets and drones at Israel in response to the assassination of a senior commander. Israel’s military confirmed the death of one Israeli navy soldier during the exchange. Hezbollah and its Amal allies reported that three of their fighters were killed.
