Hezbollah confirmed the death of Ibrahim Aqil, a key military figure wanted by the US for the 1983 Beirut embassy bombing. Aqil was killed in an Israeli airstrike, which also claimed the lives of several members of the elite Radwan unit he led, thus marking a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict.
In total, 14 people died and 66 were injured when an Israeli airstrike struck a residential building in the southern suburbs of Beirut. Paramedics worked overnight to rescue survivors and recover bodies from the rubble, reflecting the devastating impact of the strike on the local community.
This week's violence saw at least 42 fatalities and over 3,000 injuries, triggered by remote detonations of explosives embedded in pagers and walkie-talkies used by Hezbollah. This marked a troubling intensification of hostilities, culminating in a new Israeli military strategy focused on northern Israel.
Israel has submitted formal challenges to the ICC regarding arrest warrants for Israeli leaders over alleged war crimes in Gaza, indicating a fierce legal and military confrontation as tensions between Israel and Hezbollah continue to escalate.
