Israel-Hezbollah Conflict Intensifies, G7 Calls for Truce

The conflict between Israel and Hezbollah has intensified with the Israeli military launching a series of airstrikes on Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon, killing nearly 500 people and injuring approximately 1,650, according to Lebanese authorities. Tens of thousands of Lebanese civilians are fleeing their homes, causing severe congestion on main highways towards Beirut. Hezbollah has retaliated by firing rockets into northern Israel, targeting military installations and other sites. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) issued warnings to Lebanese civilians to evacuate areas near Hezbollah's weapon storage sites to avoid casualties. Meanwhile, the G7 nations have called for an immediate truce, warning that further escalation could lead to a broader regional conflict. The situation remains dire with fears of an all-out war as both sides continue their attacks with no signs of de-escalation.
