Lebanon military says one soldier killed, 18 hurt in Israeli strike on army centre
At least one soldier has been killed and 18 others wounded, some seriously, after an Israeli attack on an army centre in the town of al-Amiriya on the Qlaileh-Tyre road in southern Lebanon, the Lebanese army has said. The attack caused severe damage to the facility, the army added in a post on X.
The Israeli military did not immediately comment on the incident.

Israel ‘attacks anyone it wants, whenever it wants’
The attack took place just a little before noon local time; rescue crews are still likely on the way to the scene of this attack. We got reports that an Israeli strike was carried out on an army base, a checkpoint of the Lebanese army intelligence in al-Amiriya, in the Tyre district.
At least one person has been killed and 18 others injured.
This goes to show no matter what Israel says about who it’s targeting, who it’s fighting, it attacks anyone it wants, whenever it wants, inside Lebanon. One thing every Lebanese will tell you now is that there is no safe roof over anyone’s head and what unites them now is the shared experience of Israel’s ongoing aggression, its ongoing war on Lebanon.

Hezbollah claims its first drone attack on Israel’s Ashdod naval base
Hezbollah says it launched a drone attack on the Ashdod naval base in southern Israel for the first time. The Lebanese group said in another statement it also carried out an operation against a “military target” in Tel Aviv using “a barrage of advanced missiles and a swarm of strike drones”.
Rockets from Lebanon hit Tel Aviv, Haifa areas
The Israeli ambulance service says three people were wounded in Petah Tikva, east of Tel Aviv, after rockets were launched from Lebanon.
Since the morning, we’ve seen reports of a large number of rockets fired from Lebanon towards Israel. This is presumed to be in response to violent attacks yesterday in the Lebanese capital.
In addition to the northern border areas and towns, we now have reports of direct impact in an area near Tel Aviv in Haifa and Haifa Bay area. Three people were reported injured.
There was anticipation for this kind of response. If we go by the pattern, Hezbollah usually responds to the attack on Beirut by attacking Tel Aviv.
Certainly, the number of rockets, which some Israeli reports put as high as 150 so far today, is an indication of the kind of escalation we’re seeing since the early morning.
