Hezbollah launched rockets at Israel shortly after Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei delivered a rare Friday sermon. Khamenei called for resistance against Israel, saying it would not defeat Hezbollah or Hamas. The attacks follow intense Israeli airstrikes on Lebanon, killing 37 people in the last 24 hours. One strike targeted Hezbollah's likely new leader, Hashem Safieddine, though his fate is unclear. Tensions between Israel, Hezbollah, and Iran are escalating, with Israel preparing a possible retaliation against Iran. The conflict has displaced over a million people from southern Lebanon.
