Israeli airstrikes hit targets in Lebanon, Hezbollah vows retaliation

Israeli warplanes struck targets in southern Lebanon early Thursday, triggering retaliatory rocket fire from the militant group Hezbollah. The Israeli military said it targeted sites belonging to the Iran-backed militant group, which has a significant presence in Lebanon. Hezbollah’s Al-Manar TV reported that several sites were hit, including near the southern town of Marjayoun. Hezbollah’s leader, Hassan Nasrallah, vowed retaliation, saying the group’s response would be ‘proportional and deliberate’. The escalation comes amid heightened tensions between Israel and Iran and its proxies, including Hezbollah.
