Hezbollah launched an attack in northern Israel, killing at least one person, in response to the US-Israel war on Iran. This incident occurred as Israel deployed more troops to support its ground invasion in southern Lebanon, which has caused over 1,000 deaths and displaced one million people. Israel’s ZAKA 360 emergency response unit confirmed the death of a person in a vehicle hit by a rocket from Lebanon. Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz ordered the destruction of Lebanese homes and bridges, citing threats to Israel from Hezbollah. The Israeli military claimed to have killed a Hezbollah commander and a Hamas operative in southern Lebanon, but these claims could not be independently verified.
