At least 40 people were killed in Israeli airstrikes on Baalbek, Lebanon, as Israel escalated its campaign against Hezbollah, shifting focus from southern border areas.
Israel stated its military targets included around 20 sites linked to Hezbollah in Baalbek and the region, reflecting a broader strategy to cripple the militant group.
Lebanon's health ministry indicated the human toll from airstrikes in the historic city of Baalbek and surrounding areas is merely a preliminary estimate as violence escalates.
The ongoing conflict has displaced over 1.2 million people in Lebanon, with significant casualties reported in recent months amid Israel's intensified military operations.
