In Lebanon, Hezbollah fighters launched simultaneous attacks on 19 Israeli positions along Israel’s border on Thursday, prompting Israel to respond with warplanes, helicopter gunships, artillery and tank fire. At least two people in the Israeli town of Kiryat Shmona were wounded in the exchange of fire — the largest skirmish since Hamas’s October 7 attack. The cross-border violence came as Hezbollah’s leader Hassan Nasrallah is set to make his first public remarks today on Israel’s assault on Gaza.
