On September 24, violence escalated between Israel and Hezbollah, marking a second day of intense hostilities. Israel launched airstrikes on 1,300 Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon, following a devastating day on September 23 that resulted in Lebanon’s deadliest violence in decades, with around 500 casualties reported. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) spokesperson, Rear-Admiral Daniel Hagari, emphasized that these strikes were based on precise intelligence and aimed at neutralizing imminent threats posed by Hezbollah. Among the targets hit were long-range cruise missiles and heavy rockets capable of carrying 1,000-kilo warheads. In retaliation, Hezbollah fired rockets into northern Israel, intensifying fears of a full-blown conflict. As the situation continues to unfold, both sides remain on high alert, with international observers expressing deep concern over the potential for further escalation in the region.
