**Israel Strikes Hezbollah Targets in Lebanon**
The Israeli military has launched strikes on Hezbollah targets in southern Beirut. The attack has killed two people and wounded 13 more, according to the Lebanese health ministry.
This latest strike comes as tensions between Israel and Hezbollah continue to rise. The US has called for a ceasefire in the war, but so far there are no signs of de-escalation.
**Previous Attacks**
In late September, Israel launched an offensive against Hezbollah, killing the group’s leader Hassan Nasrallah and other top commanders. This was followed by air and ground attacks on Beirut, which have left thousands dead or displaced.
Over 3,400 people have been killed in Lebanon since then, including at least 2,600 since the intense air campaign began. More than 1.2 million people have also been displaced from their homes.
**Background**
The conflict started when Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel on October 7, 2023. Hezbollah has since stepped up its rocket attacks in support of Palestinians, leading to the Israeli military’s renewed efforts against the group.
