Israeli-Hezbollah Clashes: Over 20 Airstrikes on Lebanon, Deaths and Injuries; Hezbollah Retaliates with Guided Missiles

Israeli-Hezbollah Clashes: Over 20 Airstrikes on Lebanon, Deaths and Injuries; Hezbollah Retaliates with Guided Missiles

On Wednesday, the Israeli army carried out over 20 airstrikes on Lebanese border towns, resulting in casualties.
Alarms went off in Israeli settlements such as Adamit, Goren, Eilon, and Arab Al-Aramsheh in Western Galilee.

Hezbollah was reportedly leading a major attack from southern Lebanon using missiles and drones, causing injuries among Israelis in Avivim and Kiryat Shmona.

Seven soldiers were hit, some killed and others injured, at the Al-Malikiyah site in a combined missile and drone attack.

Hezbollah's attacks also targeted Kiryat Shmona.

Israeli airstrikes were carried out on Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon, resulting in power outages in Avivim and Dovev, and the death of three Hezbollah members in Khiam.

The Israeli army confirmed conducting airstrikes on Hezbollah-affiliated targets in six areas, including Kfarkela, Aita Al-Shaab, Khiam, and Maroun Al-Ras.

Ten airstrikes hit the forest area between Aita Al-Shaab and Ramyah, and towns such as Yaroun, Jabal Blat, Kfarkela, Rihan, Aaramta, and Khiam were also targeted.

One house in Khiam was completely destroyed during the raids.

The text reports on military conflicts between Israel and Hezbollah, with specific mentions of the towns Aitaroun and Blida being hit with banned phosphorus bombs and artillery shelling in Naqoura, Halta, Kfarchouba, and Jabal Blat.

Civil defense teams worked to put out a fire caused by an airstrike.

The Israeli military used bunker-buster bombs, effective against fortified structures, in airstrikes on Kafr Kila.

In response, Hezbollah launched attacks against Israeli military sites, resulting in casualties among Israeli soldiers.

Both sides have utilized banned and effective military weapons.

Hezbollah carried out attacks on Israeli settlements and military sites in response to enemy attacks on southern villages and civilian homes.

Targeted structures included buildings in Metula, Shlomi, Hanita, Avivim, and the Al-Manara site.

Hezbollah also targeted Israeli soldiers at the Raheb site, causing damage and destroying espionage equipment.

The Israeli army and Hezbollah have seen increased military engagement over the past 48 hours, coinciding with Israel's incursion into the Rafah crossing.

Reports suggest Hezbollah is using unconventional weapons due to extensive phosphorus contamination from Israeli scorched-earth tactics.

The text discusses the anticipated long-term cleanup process to remove pollutants caused by Israeli military actions in the region, which harmed crops, groundwater, and soil.

Simultaneously, Israeli forces near the Blue Line attacked water tanks and essential roads in Rmeich and Ramyah with heavy machine gun fire.

Hezbollah has linked a ceasefire on the southern front to a halt in hostilities in the Gaza Strip.
