Escalating clashes with Lebanon

An Israeli raid on Monday led to the killing of Hezbollah’s elite unit official, Wissam al-Tawil, leading to mutual bombing between the two sides on the border.

In response to the assassination, Hezbollah fired missiles from southern Lebanon towards the Ruwaisat Alam site in Shebaa Farms, where it confirmed casualties.

The occupation also confirmed that a soldier was injured when an anti-tank missile was fired at the Mount Dov area on the border with Lebanon, and sirens sounded in several towns in the Western Galilee.

The World Health Organization said on Monday that it was forced to cancel a mission to deliver medical supplies to northern Gaza Strip because it was unable to obtain security guarantees.

And the Save the Children organization on Sunday said more than 10 children on average lose one or both of their legs every day in Gaza.
