Escalating Conflict: Hezbollah Fires Missile at Tel Aviv Amid Rising Tensions
Hezbollah fired a missile at Tel Aviv on Wednesday, marking the group's deepest strike into Israel amid escalating tensions. The Israeli military intercepted the missile and plans to activate reserve troops. Strikes and counterstrikes have killed hundreds and displaced thousands on both sides of the border.
Hezbollah fired several projectiles into Israel early Wednesday, marking an escalation by targeting Tel Aviv, the group's deepest strike yet. The Israeli military confirmed it intercepted the missile and is mobilizing reserve troops in response.
The missile launch, intercepted by Israeli defenses, has intensified hostilities and comes after Israeli airstrikes on Lebanon killed hundreds. In response, Israel bombarded the launch site in southern Lebanon.
Ongoing conflict has displaced over 90,000 people in Lebanon, with families seeking refuge in Beirut and Sidon. The UN reports 200,000 displacements to date, exacerbating the humanitarian crisis as hostilities continue to erupt across northern Israel and southern Lebanon.
