In a significant escalation, Israel and Hezbollah have exchanged strikes, heightening fears of a full-scale war. On Sunday morning, Israel launched around 100 fighter jets in pre-emptive strikes on Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon, marking the largest attack since the 2006 war. Hezbollah retaliated with over 300 rockets and missiles targeting northern Israel. This conflict follows recent high-profile assassinations and ongoing tensions. Despite both sides expressing a desire to avoid war, they are prepared for further escalation, with Hezbollah’s extensive arsenal and experienced fighters posing a formidable challenge to Israel.
