Israel launched strikes on Hezbollah's intelligence headquarters in Beirut after a drone was reportedly launched at Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's residence. The Israeli military claimed to have targeted a Hezbollah command center and killed three militants. Simultaneously, airstrikes in Gaza resulted in at least 73 Palestinian deaths, with the Israeli military stating it targeted Hamas. The conflict has intensified since the October 7 Hamas attack, leading to over 42,519 fatalities in Gaza. Hezbollah responded with rocket barrages, marking a significant escalation in ongoing hostilities between Israel and Iran-backed groups.
