At least 18 Palestinians were killed in an Israeli airstrike on Tulkarm refugee camp in the West Bank, while Israeli attacks on Hezbollah in Lebanon continued. Explosions rocked Beirut’s southern suburbs, with airstrikes near the city’s airport. Israel claims it targeted Hezbollah positions, killing 27 people, and urged evacuations of over 20 Lebanese towns. Hezbollah retaliated by launching rockets into northern Israel, which intercepted most projectiles. The conflict escalated further following Hezbollah’s rocket attacks in response to the Israel-Hamas war, with 1,276 people reportedly killed in Lebanon since mid-September.
