Situation at the the Lebanon border isn't getting any better either

Israel strikes several sites in southern Lebanon

The Israeli army says it carried out attacks on several “Hezbollah terror infrastructure” in the areas of Aita al-Shaab, Arnoun and Tayr Harfa in southern Lebanon. In a situational update on Telegram, the army said the areas of Alma ash-Shaab and Souaneh were also hit overnight.

The attacks come after the army said five rockets were launched from Lebanon into northern Israel overnight.

He added that another attack claimed by Hamas in the Amal neighbourhood, using anti-tank missiles, hit three Israeli Merkava tanks, killing five Israeli soldiers.
