Israeli Occupation continues its aggression against Lebanon, targeting residential areas and critical infrastructure linked to Hezbollah through heavy airstrikes and artillery fire.

This military escalation coincides with heightened regional tensions and international calls for an immediate ceasefire, as Lebanese citizens endure the violence, exacerbating their daily struggles.

Key developments regarding the situation in Lebanon include:

  • Roya’s correspondent: Four hospitals in southern Lebanon are now out of service.
  • "Israeli" army claims to have killed 250 Hezbollah fighters, including 21 commanders, over the past four days.
  • Palestinian Red Crescent: We are treating 15 workers injured after being severely beaten by Israeli Occupation Forces at an entrance to Jericho.
  • Iranian Foreign Minister: We support Lebanon’s efforts to confront Israeli Occupation crimes.
  • Iranian Foreign Minister: Confident that the occupation's crimes will fail and the Lebanese people will prevail.
  • Iranian Foreign Minister: I assured Mikati and Berri of Iran's support for Lebanon and the resistance.
  • Roya’s correspondent: Israeli Occupation Forces launch new airstrikes on Beirut’s southern suburbs.
  • "Israeli" army radio: Two rockets detected launched from Gaza toward surrounding areas.
  • Hezbollah: Targeted an IOF gathering in Sa’sa with a heavy "Borkan" missile.
  • Palestinian Health Ministry: Death toll from the Gaza aggression rises to 41,802.
  • "Israeli" army: Bombed an underground tunnel crossing the Lebanese-Syrian border on Thursday.
  • "Israeli" media: Over 30 rockets targeted towns in Galilee within minutes.
  • Hezbollah: Artillery targeted an Israeli site in occupied Kfar Shuba hills.
  • "Israeli" army: Eliminated Hezbollah's head of communications, Mohammad Skaff.
  • "Israeli" Home Front Command: Sirens sound in several towns in western Galilee, east of Acre.

A report from the Hebrew newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth revealed that the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) dropped approximately 73 tons of bombs on a Hezbollah headquarters in southern Beirut.

This attack reportedly aimed at Hezbollah leader and deputy secretary-general Hashem Safieddine, the potential successor to Hassan Nasrallah.

On Friday, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi arrived at Beirut-Rafic Hariri International Airport in Beirut on an Iranian flight.

This visit marks the first by an Iranian official since Nasrallah's assassination and the escalation of Israeli Occupation airstrikes across Lebanon, highlighting Iran's ongoing support for Hezbollah and the Lebanese resistance.

In a rare Arabic-language speech, Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei emphasized the Palestinian people's right to resist the Israeli Occupation, asserting that the "arrogant and tyrannical" powers aim to create discord among Muslims.

Khamenei also underscored the Lebanese people's right to support Palestinians and defend their land, stating that the recent Iranian missile attack on "Israeli" targets represents a minimal response to the ongoing aggressions of the occupation.
