Hostilities in the Middle East are continuing as Israeli aircraft struck Hezbollah weapons smuggling sites along the Syria-Lebanon border, testing a fragile ceasefire that had halted months of fighting between the two sides. The Israeli military stated that the airstrikes targeted sites used to smuggle weapons from Syria to Lebanon after the ceasefire took effect, in violation of its terms. There has been no immediate comment from Syrian authorities or Hezbollah.
Meanwhile, in Gaza, fighting continues as an Israeli strike on a car resulted in the deaths of five people, including three employees of the food charity World Central Kitchen. The charity has not commented on the incident. The Israeli military claimed the strike targeted a militant involved in a previous attack by Hamas.
The ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah does not include Gaza, where the conflict is ongoing. Israeli aircraft have previously struck Hezbollah targets in Lebanon, citing ceasefire violations.
The situation in the Middle East remains tense, with the ceasefire being tested by continued sporadic fire and violations. The conflict highlights the complex and volatile nature of the region, with multiple factions and ongoing tensions.
