🇮🇱 Fighting intensifies as Israel marks the one-year anniversary of Oct 7

🇮🇱
As Israel marks the one-year anniversary of the devastating Oct 7 Hamas attack, fighting intensifies on the northern front. Hezbollah launches 135 projectiles at Israeli cities, including Haifa and Tiberias, as Israeli forces retaliate with heavy airstrikes in southern Lebanon. U.S. assesses Israel’s ground operations as limited, but Lebanese citizens fear Gaza-like devastation. Tensions escalate across the Middle East, with concerns rising over a broader conflict involving Iran and the U.S. The region braces for what feels like a critical turning point.

Strikes continue on two fronts on anniversary of Oct. 7 Hamas attacks

As Israelis held demonstrations and remembrances a year after Hamas killed and abducted hundreds of people on Oct. 7, 2023, the war in Gaza, which began in response to that day’s massacre, has not abated. Instead, the fighting has expanded to Lebanon, threatening to engulf the region in conflict.
