Israeli Airstrikes Intensify in Lebanon Amid Diplomatic Efforts for Ceasefire
An Israeli airstrike near Beirut’s Tayouneh junction has flattened a building amid increased bombardment of Hezbollah-controlled regions. This escalation coincides with US-led diplomatic efforts to negotiate a ceasefire, including a recent draft proposal presented to Lebanese officials. Meanwhile, Israel’s military continues targeting areas associated with Hezbollah, causing significant civilian displacement and casualties, with reports indicating over 3,386 deaths in Lebanon since early October. The situation remains critical as both sides engage in combat, complicating ceasefire negotiations.
