00:18Tensions along the Israel-Lebanon border have sharply escalated after Hezbollah formally
00:26entered the widening conflict involving Israel, the United States, and Iran.
00:33In the early hours of March 2nd, Hezbollah launched rockets and drones from southern
00:40Lebanon toward northern Israel.
00:43The group said the attack was in retaliation for the assassination of Iran's supreme leader,
00:50Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, and ongoing Israeli strikes on Iranian targets.
00:58Air raid sirens sounded across northern Israel, including Haifa and surrounding communities.
01:05The Israel Defense Forces reported intercepting several projectiles, while others landed in
01:13open areas.
01:14No immediate injuries were reported.
01:18Hezbollah claimed it targeted a missile defense site south of Haifa and later launched additional
01:26drones toward military facilities in northern Israel.
01:31This marks the group's first claimed projectile attack since the 2024 ceasefire agreement.
01:38Israel responded with extensive airstrikes on Hezbollah-linked sites across Lebanon, including Beirut's
01:48southern suburbs, the Bekaa Valley, and areas in the south.
01:53Lebanese officials reported dozens killed and more than 100 wounded amid the retaliatory strikes.
02:02Lebanon's prime minister condemned the attack, calling it irresponsible and warning it could
02:09drag the country deeper into conflict.
02:12The Israeli military says it will continue operations until the threat is neutralized.
02:20The exchange raises fears of a broader regional war as tensions between Israel and Iran intensify,
02:28and Hezbollah takes a more direct role in the confrontation.
02:33The situation remains fluid, with both sides on high alert.
