Israeli Strikes Target Hezbollah and Hamas Operatives in Lebanon and Syria

An Israeli drone strike near Lebanon's Sidon killed at least two people and wounded two others, with tensions escalating across the Middle East amid the Israel-Hamas war, U.S. military strikes in Yemen, and Israeli airstrikes in Syria. Iran's Foreign Minister called for an end to Israel's military operations in Gaza, while the U.S. conducted self-defense strikes against Houthi-controlled areas in Yemen. Tensions also flared in Iraq, with a U.S. airstrike killing a Kataib Hezbollah commander and Iran-backed militias calling for the expulsion of U.S. forces from the region.
