Israeli jets launched strikes on Hezbollah sites across southern Lebanon on Sunday after assessing imminent rocket and missile attacks by the Iranian-backed group. In response, Hezbollah announced a large-scale operation. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) warned civilians in southern Lebanon to evacuate areas near Hezbollah operations. Flights to and from Tel Aviv's Ben Gurion Airport were suspended, and Israel's cabinet convened to address the situation. This escalation follows a recent Israeli strike in Beirut that killed a senior Hezbollah commander and raised fears of further conflict in the Middle East.
