Israel launched its latest attacks against Hezbollah targets in Lebanon on Monday, Sept. 23, as part of its new round of “extensive strikes.” The Israeli military warned civilians to evacuate areas where it says Hezbollah is storing weapons ahead of further strikes.

The Lebanese health ministry said 100 people were killed and more than 400 injured in Monday’s attacks across the southern and eastern portions of the country (this number has been updated since Unbiased Updates was recorded earlier in the morning). These latest strikes come after last week’s explosions targeting walkie-talkies and pagers, and Friday’s, Sept. 20, attack on Beirut which killed 45 people, including a senior Hezbollah commander.
Hezbollah followed that attack by launching around 150 rockets, missiles and drones into northern Israel.
When asked if the latest strikes by Israel indicate an imminent ground invasion, an IDF spokesperson said right now, Israel is focused on its aerial campaign.
The back and forth between Israel and Hezbollah is adding to the growing concern by the U.S. and allies of a wider war in the Middle East. Iran-backed Hezbollah and Israel have exchanged strikes since Oct. 8, 2023, a day after Hamas’ attacks on Israel.
