A deadly drone strike by Hezbollah on northern Israel killed four people and injured over 60 on Sunday, marking one of the most severe cross-border attacks in recent weeks. The strike targeted a Golani Brigade training base near Haifa, bypassing Israel's air defense systems—an alarming escalation in the conflict.
Hezbollah Warns of More Attacks
Hezbollah later threatened further action if Israel continues its military operations in Lebanon, calling the drone strike 'just a glimpse' of what's to come. The group's warning comes as Israeli forces expand bombardments in southern Lebanon, where clashes with militants intensify daily.
UN Peacekeepers Caught in Crossfire
The UN Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) reported Israeli tanks 'forcibly entered' one of their positions hours after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu urged their withdrawal. Five UN peacekeepers have been injured since Thursday. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres condemned the incidents, stating such actions 'may constitute war crimes.'
Why it matters: The drone strike and UN clashes highlight the rapid spillover risks of the Israel-Lebanon conflict, with global leaders urging de-escalation.
