Israel launches major strikes on Lebanon and Gaza; casualties reported

Israel has conducted major strikes in southern Lebanon, primarily targeting and destroying extensive Hezbollah underground infrastructure, including tunnel networks and command complexes, particularly under the Ali al-Taher ridge. These operations, which caused seismic events, are part of an effort to complete a security zone and degrade Hezbollah's cross-border capabilities. While Israel claims significant success, the full extent of damage, casualties, and Hezbollah's operational capacity remains unconfirmed.
