On August 23, projectiles and explosions illuminated the sky over northern Israel, visible towards Lebanon. The confrontation intensified as Israeli airstrikes targeted southern Lebanon, resulting in the deaths of at least six fighters and one child, according to security sources. In retaliation, the militant group Hezbollah launched artillery and rocket attacks across the border. The escalation of hostilities comes amid ongoing conflict between the Israeli military and Iran-backed Hezbollah, with recent exchanges of fire paralleling the Gaza war. Since clashes began last October, over 600 people in Lebanon have been killed, including more than 400 Hezbollah combatants and over 130 civilians.
