Israel intensifies strikes after Iran missiles
In retaliation to Iran’s missile attacks, Israel’s Air Force will continue aggressive strikes within the Middle East. IDF spokesman Daniel Hagari has not given specifics on the forthcoming operations. Following the announcement, IDF reported targeting Hezbollah sites in Beirut. Lebanese sources confirmed a hit on Beirut’s suburbs, previously attacked last week, resulting in Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah’s death. IDF has urged evacuation in 30 southern Lebanese villages citing safety concerns, with a pledge to inform residents about the safe return. Tensions have escalated with frequent attacks along the Lebanese-Israeli border since October 8, including intensified airstrikes and troops deployment.
