Hezbollah has claimed responsibility for 26 attacks on Israeli forces in southern Lebanon, carried out since Thursday afternoon. The group said its operations included a missile strike on an Israeli tank outside the town of Dair Syrian, shelling of Israeli troops advancing toward Haddatha, and an assault on soldiers gathered in the village of Labbouneh. Hezbollah asserted that the attacks caused casualties and damage among Israeli forces but did not specify numbers.

Meanwhile, reports indicate that more than 30 people were killed in intense Israeli strikes in the same region. Friday was described as one of the deadliest days of Israeli air raids in southern Lebanon. The ongoing conflict between Israel and Hezbollah, which began on March 2, has so far resulted in over 2,700 deaths and at least 8,500 injuries in Lebanon.

The situation underscores the continuing escalation along the Lebanon-Israel border, with both sides sustaining heavy losses and no sign of de-escalation mentioned in the report.
