Hezbollah's acting leader has vowed to extend rocket attacks deeper into Israeli territory, potentially displacing more citizens. The announcement was made during a televised address commemorating the recent escalation in conflict.

Sheikh Naim Kassem assured supporters of Hezbollah's continued military strength, revealing that its top commanders have been swiftly replaced following Israeli strikes. The Israeli military, meanwhile, claims progress in dismantling Hezbollah's capabilities but faces skepticism regarding its assertions.

As Lebanon suffers tremendous losses, with over 1,300 dead and more than a million displaced, the conflict's resolution remains elusive. Both sides suffer casualties, while diplomatic efforts for a Gaza cease-fire prove ineffective, underscoring the regional complexities at play.
