Israel has deployed three additional reserve brigades to its northern border, signaling possible preparations for a ground offensive in southern Lebanon. The military describes the operation as limited but stresses that all options remain open, with the primary goal being to dismantle Hezbollah and its military infrastructure.

In Gaza, Israeli airstrikes continue unabated.

Meanwhile, Lebanon observes the second of three days of mourning for Hezbollah’s assassinated leader, Hassan Nasrallah, as authorities keep watch for updates on his funeral arrangements.
