Israel Expands Invasion of Southern Lebanon as UNICEF Warns Attacks Have Killed 121 Children

HeadlineMar 27, 2026

Israel’s military says it is expanding its invasion of southern Lebanon, sending more ground forces to set up a so-called buffer zone along Israel’s northern border. The deployment of more Israeli troops came after Israel’s finance minister and defense minister both suggested Israel should annex southern Lebanon. This comes as UNICEF warns Israeli attacks have killed at least 121 children in Lebanon, with more than 370,000 children displaced from their homes.
