Rocket fire from Lebanon kills seven in northern Israel in deadliest strikes since invasion
Rocket fire from Lebanon killed seven people in northern Israel on Thursday, marking the deadliest attacks since Israel's military invasion earlier this month. The strikes hit agricultural areas near Haifa and Metula, prompting evacuations.
The violence escalated as U.S. diplomats sought cease-fires in the region. Hezbollah has intensified its rocket attacks, leading to significant Israeli retaliatory strikes and a humanitarian crisis in Lebanon, with 1.2 million people displaced.
Israeli military operations continue in southern Lebanon, with airstrikes reported to have killed eight people. Local officials support ongoing military actions despite the risks to civilians, as tensions remain high along the border.
