Israel has escalated its ground offensive against Hezbollah in southern Lebanon, committing more soldiers to the operation. The Israeli military has reported its first combat deaths, with eight personnel losing their lives in clashes with the Iran-backed militia.
Hezbollah claims to have destroyed three Israeli tanks near the border town of Maroun El Ras, though this has not been independently verified. Israel has responded by continuing to carry out airstrikes on Hezbollah targets in Beirut and southern Lebanon.
DW’s Beirut Bureau Chief Mohamad Chreyteh visited the Dahiyeh suburb in the south of Beirut, where Israeli airstrikes have targeted alleged Hezbollah facilities. The Israeli government’s stated goal is to prevent Hezbollah from launching rockets into northern Israel, a concern heightened by the ongoing conflict in Gaza.
Hezbollah is labeled a terrorist group by Israel, as well as by many other countries, including Germany and the US. Lebanon has suffered heavy casualties, with the health minister reporting over 1,000 people killed in the last two weeks of fighting.
The escalating conflict between Israel and Hezbollah has led to a devastating toll on both sides, with no end in sight to the violence ravaging the region.

We dont trust Hezbollah as incredible source. One side story!
Not guarded by Hezbla, but occupied
Israel will brings peace to the middle east when the fighting is over
Stay off social media….blind your enemies Isreal
At dawn on Wednesday, an elite force from the “israeli” enemy army, numbering more than 30 officers and soldiers, began silently infiltrating the ambush area.
Upon the arrival of the “israeli” elite force to the point of ambush, not far from the border, it was confronted by the resistance fighters with a call of "We are at your service O Nasrallah!”
The fighters rained down barrages of bullets from their light weapons, machine guns and rocket shells on the invading force.
The clash between the resistance fighters and the infiltrating elite force reached point-blank.
The clash resulted in many dead and wounded among the ranks of this force, to the point that the soldiers were met with the number of their dead and wounded and began to scream and wail.
If the chief of hezbollah was there it means there was a military target there. Western media should stop employing islamists
Those are no soldiers they are thieves trying to steal little bit of land from poor people
Hezbollah infrastructure is in the civilian dwellings, of course!
It’s more than 8 💀
Hezbollah has brought a war to Lebanon just because of in solidarity of Hamas and Palestinians. Now look at how Israel is destroying Beirut and Dahiyeh gradually. Half of Lebanon will be destroy and civilians will suffer than any war history. Something must be done immediately by diplomacy, Lebanon didn't need this war.
Idf says 8 killed but there has been many more and with all the injuried number can go up to a 100 soldiers.
Israel going into the hornets nets it’s ain’t going to end well for them lol
It’s more than 8 💀
We can’t trust Israeli sources
Without any strategic planning & also their precise location israel won't openly deploy their troops vs the enemy forces.
2. In guerrilla war tactics indirect attacks leads to major enemy loss isreal should know that & Use it too.
מגיעה להם!!!
It should be 8000 instead of of 8??
Ask from the people who are being affected man. U wearing clean suits don't feel agony of suffering people.
Lets up the scoreboard where is your attic?
Lebanon will become like Gaza in a matter of months
The IDF's claims of doing everything to "avoid civilian causalities" sound reminiscent to Putin & his claim that a "Special Military Operation would be complete in three days."
Israel being criticized for not having an exit strategy…I think their strategy is Deus Ex Machina, with the USA and NATO playing the part of God.
