Hezbollah launches 37 attacks on Israeli military positions in 24 hours, striking an Iron Dome air defense platform and troop gatherings in northern Israel and southern Lebanon. The group claims the assaults come in response to "ongoing Israeli ceasefire violations," according to a statement released Thursday .

Israel turns to the United States for advanced drone defense systems after Hezbollah’s unmanned aircraft expose critical gaps in detection.

The urgency follows an Israeli military admission on Friday that troops mistakenly fired on a civilian aircraft over the occupied West Bank, mistaking it for a hostile drone—a incident now under investigation .

Violence escalates in southern Lebanon, displacing hundreds of thousands as Israeli airstrikes kill civilians and Hezbollah retaliates. The UN Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) warns of deepening humanitarian concerns, with Israeli warplanes striking a medical facility in Tyre district on Friday, wounding several people . The attack raises questions about ceasefire compliance ahead of US-mediated security talks in Washington.

Israel rejects Lebanese demands to withdraw troops from southern Lebanon during negotiations, insisting on maintaining its positions while pushing for a direct communication mechanism and Hezbollah disarmament. The stance comes as both sides trade accusations of ceasefire violations .

The conflict remains locked in a cycle of tit-for-tat strikes, with neither side signaling de-escalation. Diplomatic efforts continue, but the absence of a formal ceasefire leaves civilians in southern Lebanon and northern Israel caught in the crossfire.
