Israel Launches Ground Invasion into Lebanon

Israel has launched a ground invasion into southern Lebanon, targeting Hezbollah infrastructure and positions near the border, marking the first such incursion since the 2006 Lebanon War. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) are conducting extensive operations to neutralize threats to Israeli communities in northern Israel. Lebanese troops have withdrawn further from the border in anticipation of continued Israeli military actions. Despite global calls for a ceasefire, including from the United States and the European Union, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to continue military actions against Hezbollah and Hamas. The situation remains tense, with further escalations expected.
