Lebanon is reeling from the aftermath of Israeli attacks, with over 1,000 people dead, 6,000 injured, and 1 million displaced, according to the Lebanese government. The Israel Defense Forces launched targeted raids against Hezbollah in southern Lebanon, aiming to neutralize threats near the Israeli border. Diplomatic efforts to prevent the conflict from escalating have faltered, with 95 people killed on Monday in Israeli airstrikes. Hezbollah’s deputy leader Naim Qassem vowed to continue resistance, stating, “We will win as we won in 2006.” The US and UK have urged political solutions to the crisis.
