Lebanon-based armed group Hezbollah has claimed responsibility for a missile attack targeting Israeli soldiers stationed near the Lebanon border. According to a statement published by Lebanon’s state news agency NNA, the group said it struck Israeli forces positioned in Khallat al-Mahafir, located in the town of Al-Adisa. The incident reportedly occurred close to the frontier area separating Lebanon and Israel.

As of the report’s publication, Israeli authorities had not issued any immediate comment regarding the alleged attack. The information was sourced from Al Jazeera and relayed through local media. The report did not mention any casualties or further military developments following the strike.

The situation adds to ongoing tensions along the Lebanon-Israel border, though the source did not provide details on potential escalation or diplomatic responses.

At least 31 people were killed in Israeli airstrikes across Lebanon on Friday, according to the state-run National News Agency (NNA). The attacks struck multiple regions, leaving many others injured. In the eastern outskirts of Sidon, an Israeli strike on a residential building killed eight people and injured nine. Rescue teams in Kleileh city of Tyre district recovered two bodies from a collapsed building early Saturday.

In other incidents, one person was killed in a drone strike between Kafartabnit and Arnoun in Batih district, and another in an airstrike on Yater city in Bint Jbeil district. Two more were killed in Bar Elias city in the Bekaa Valley, while a strike in Beirut’s Jannah area targeted a car, killing one person. Additional casualties were reported in Shebaa and Nabatieh al-Fawqa.

The widespread attacks caused significant civilian casualties, including children, as families in southern Lebanon buried their dead following the strikes.

An Israeli airstrike on a health center in southern Lebanon has killed at least 12 people, including doctors, nurses, and paramedics, according to the Lebanese Ministry of Health. The attack targeted the Burj Kalawiyah Health Care Center in a village in southern Lebanon. Officials said the death toll is preliminary as several people remain missing under the debris.

The ministry reported that since the current wave of hostilities began, a total of 773 people have been killed across Lebanon, including 103 children, and more than 1,900 others have been injured. Authorities noted that recent airstrikes have become increasingly deadly, with attacks occurring not only in southern Lebanon but also in the capital, Beirut.

Rescue operations are ongoing at the site of the latest strike, while officials continue to assess the full extent of the damage and casualties.

Lebanon’s armed group Hezbollah has announced that it is prepared for a long-term conflict with Israel. In a televised address, the group’s leader Naim Qassem stated that Israel would face “unexpected surprises” on the battlefield. He added that the ongoing clashes could continue for an extended period and that Hezbollah is advancing with preparations accordingly.

The Iran-backed organization, based in Lebanon, has been engaged in regular exchanges of fire with Israel since March 2. The tensions escalated after Hezbollah launched airstrikes on Israel following the death of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. In response, Israel has carried out extensive attacks in Lebanon, claiming to target Hezbollah’s infrastructure and military sites.

Analysts cited in the report warned that the current hostilities could potentially expand into a wider regional war in the Middle East if the situation continues to deteriorate.

Israel’s military campaign in Lebanon has entered a devastating new phase, marked by intensified airstrikes and widespread destruction. Video footage shows an Israeli missile hitting a building in southern Lebanon, while a bridge crossing the Litani River was also destroyed. The escalation follows Israel’s warning that Lebanon could face the same level of devastation seen in Gaza.

According to reports, Israeli attacks since early March have killed 773 people in Lebanon. The latest strikes indicate a significant expansion of Israel’s operations in the country, with infrastructure and civilian areas increasingly affected. The situation underscores the growing humanitarian toll and the deepening regional instability as the conflict continues.

The destruction of key transport routes such as the Litani River bridge may further hinder movement and relief efforts in affected areas, compounding the crisis for local populations.

United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres has called on Israel and Hezbollah to stop the ongoing fighting and agree to an immediate ceasefire. According to Al Jazeera, Guterres made the appeal at the start of his visit to Beirut, Lebanon’s capital, during a speech at the presidential palace.

He emphasized that the war must end to allow Lebanon to develop as an independent state where only the legitimate authorities hold the right to use force. Guterres stated that it is no longer the time for armed groups but for a strong state. His remarks came as the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah entered its eleventh day.

The Secretary-General’s visit to Beirut highlights the UN’s concern over the escalating violence and its potential impact on Lebanon’s stability, as he seeks to encourage both sides toward de-escalation and national sovereignty.

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz has issued a stern warning to Lebanon following an Israeli military strike on the Zariyah Bridge over the Litani River. Katz stated that if Hezbollah is not disarmed, Israel will escalate its attacks and may seize Lebanese territory. The comments were reported by Al Jazeera and Israel’s Wynet News on Wednesday.

Katz accused the Lebanese government of failing to fulfill its commitment to disarm Hezbollah and warned that Lebanon would face increasing consequences. He said that Israel would target national infrastructure allegedly used by Hezbollah and that territorial occupation could be considered until the disarmament pledge is implemented.

The remarks have raised concerns about further escalation between Israel and Lebanon, adding to already heightened regional tensions.

At least seven people were killed and 21 others injured in an Israeli airstrike on Beirut’s central coastal area early Thursday, according to Lebanon’s Health Ministry. The attack targeted the Ramlet al-Baida district, with local media footage showing smoke rising from the shoreline. The National News Agency reported that a car was struck during the assault.

The Israeli military confirmed conducting overnight operations against Hezbollah in Beirut’s southern suburbs, saying it hit ten Hezbollah targets. This marks the third strike in central Beirut since the start of the Middle East conflict. The National News Agency also reported Israeli attacks on several southern Lebanese towns, including Taybeh, Al-Sultaniyah, and areas near Tyre.

In response, Hezbollah announced that it had launched a missile strike on an Israeli military intelligence base near Tel Aviv early Thursday, signaling continued escalation between the two sides.

Lebanon is facing a severe humanitarian crisis as more than 750,000 people have been displaced within 12 days due to the ongoing war in the Middle East. The displacement surge followed military operations launched by the United States and Israel against Iran and its allies. According to NBC News, citing Lebanese government data, most of those displaced are from southern Lebanon, where continuous Israeli airstrikes and evacuation orders have forced residents to flee.

Imran Riza, the United Nations humanitarian coordinator for Lebanon, described the pace of displacement as unprecedented, noting that over 100,000 new displacements were registered between Monday and Tuesday alone. In Beirut, schools and educational institutions have been converted into temporary shelters for families escaping the violence in the south.

Analysts warn that if the conflict continues, Lebanon could face an even deeper humanitarian crisis as the number of displaced people rises sharply.

Hezbollah’s Secretary-General Naim Qassem has congratulated Iran’s newly appointed Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei and declared unwavering loyalty to Tehran’s new leadership. In a statement published by Hezbollah-affiliated media on March 11, 2026, Qassem said the Assembly of Experts had chosen Mojtaba Khamenei, son of the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, as Iran’s new Supreme Leader, a decision Hezbollah welcomed.

Qassem reaffirmed Hezbollah’s commitment to follow the path of Iran’s Islamic Revolution and renewed the group’s pledge of allegiance to the new leader. He stated that on behalf of Hezbollah’s Shura Council, leadership, and the Islamic Resistance fighters in Lebanon, he was renewing their oath of loyalty to Mojtaba Khamenei.

The statement underscores Hezbollah’s continued alignment with Iran’s leadership, reflecting the group’s long-standing ideological and strategic ties with Tehran.

France has announced that it will send 60 metric tons of humanitarian aid to Lebanon this week amid the country’s ongoing crisis. French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot said in an interview with TF1 that Paris has tripled its assistance in response to Lebanon’s worsening humanitarian situation. The aid shipment is expected to arrive in Lebanon within the week.

According to international sources cited in the report, at least 700,000 people have been displaced in Lebanon due to the current conflict and instability. French officials have also called on the international community to increase humanitarian support to help address the escalating crisis.

The move underscores France’s growing involvement in relief efforts as Lebanon faces severe humanitarian and displacement challenges.

Israeli airstrikes on the southern Lebanese city of Jouya have killed six people, including Mayor Fawzi Fawaz and council member Abbas Balbeki, according to Lebanon’s National News Agency. The report said several deadly attacks occurred across Lebanon within a few hours, marking a surge in violence in the region.

Lebanon’s Ministry of Public Health confirmed that in Tyre district’s Hanaway city, two Israeli airstrikes killed three civilians, including a paramedic. Another strike in Tyre’s Al-Haoush area left one person dead and eight injured. In Zawtar al-Sharqiya, two more people were reported killed in separate Israeli attacks. The repeated strikes on Jouya caused multiple casualties, with local officials reportedly staying in the city to assist residents before being killed.

The series of attacks underscores the intensifying conflict between Israel and armed groups operating in southern Lebanon, with civilian areas increasingly affected by the violence.

Lebanon’s Islamic resistance group Hezbollah announced that it carried out a drone attack on an Israeli military base located west of the Sea of Galilee. In a statement, the group identified the target as the 'Samson Base,' also known as Camp Shimshon, confirming the strike as part of its ongoing operations.

According to the report, Lebanon became involved in the ongoing war on March 2, after Israel and the United States jointly launched an offensive against Iran on February 28. Prior to this escalation, Israeli forces had already been conducting attacks inside Lebanon. Hezbollah, initially restrained, began responding in support of Iran following the aggression.

The incident marks another escalation in the regional conflict, highlighting the growing involvement of Lebanese forces in the broader confrontation between Israel, Iran, and their respective allies.

The United Nations refugee agency (UNHCR) has reported that around 80,000 people have crossed from Lebanon into Syria since Israeli attacks began. UNHCR spokesperson Celine Schmitt told Syria’s state news agency SANA that many families left Lebanon in haste, often without being able to take personal belongings. Most of those displaced are currently staying with relatives in Syria.

According to Schmitt, no formal requests for emergency shelter have been registered so far. The report highlights the rapid movement of civilians amid escalating violence and the humanitarian challenges faced by those seeking safety across the border.

The situation underscores growing regional instability and the potential for further displacement if hostilities continue, though UNHCR has not yet indicated any new assistance measures.

The United States Embassy in Beirut has urged its citizens to leave Lebanon as soon as possible, citing escalating security risks. In a security alert issued on Tuesday morning, the embassy advised those who feel safe to consider departing via Middle East Airlines flights from Beirut–Rafic Hariri International Airport. For those unable to leave, the embassy recommended seeking safe shelter.

The advisory follows a week of continuous Israeli bombardment across Beirut and southern Lebanon. Israel has stated that its operations target Hezbollah, an Iran-backed armed group. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have also instructed residents of southern Lebanon to evacuate urgently due to ongoing airstrikes. IDF spokesperson Avichay Adraee said Israel is taking strict measures against Hezbollah activities south of the Litani River.

According to Lebanon’s Ministry of Health, 486 people have been killed since the start of the Israeli offensive earlier this month, as reported by BBC Bangla.
