Lebanon's Bekaa Valley suffered heavy casualties, with 22 civilians killed in airstrikes. Over 3,500 Lebanese lives have been lost since October 2023, amid intensified clashes and air raids. Civilian displacement and destruction highlight the human toll of this growing conflict.

Yvette Cooper refused to comment on whether Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu would be arrested if he visited the UK, following arrest warrants issued by the International Criminal Court (ICC) over alleged war crimes in Gaza.

Hezbollah launched a deadly 30-rocket barrage on Monday, targeting Israeli border cities including Kiryat Shmona and Nahariya in the Galilee region. The attack, which began early in the morning, caused significant damage to homes and infrastructure. One of the most notable hits was on a local hesder yeshiva in Kiryat Shmona, although fortunately, the building was unoccupied due to prior evacuations of students. While some of the rockets were intercepted by Israel's Iron Dome missile defense system, many others fell in open areas, though the damage and impact on local communities were significant.
The attack comes amidst heightened tensions as U.S. special envoy Amos Hochstein prepares to visit Beirut to receive Lebanon's official response to a ceasefire proposal. Hezbollah, backed by Iran, has reportedly added more demands to the proposal, creating doubts about a peaceful resolution. The barrage also comes on the heels of Israel's military activity in southern Lebanon, including artillery strikes against Hezbollah positions near Nabatieh.
