In a stark escalation, Israel is advancing its military efforts across two critical fronts, entering into Lebanon against Hezbollah, with the operation resulting in the deaths of eight Israeli soldiers. Concurrently, strikes in Gaza have led to the deaths of dozens, including children, as the region anticipates further upheaval.
