For its part, Hezbollah continued its attacks on Israeli targets. The Iranian-backed militia claimed responsibility for several attacks on Israeli soldiers in southern Lebanon. Hezbollah announced on Tuesday that it had used rockets and drones. It also attacked targets in Israel near the border once again.
In the course of the Iran war, open warfare also broke out again between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon. According to the authorities, more than 3,000 people have been killed in Lebanon since then. It is unclear how many of these are civilians and how many are Hezbollah members.
A ceasefire agreed between Lebanon and Israel in mid-April has already been extended twice, but both Hezbollah and Israel have continued to fire at each other.
