A wave of attacks across Israel and southern Lebanon escalated on Wednesday (11 March), with authorities reporting up to 12 incoming missile and drone alerts over Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.
No injuries have been reported in central Israel so far, but towns near the Lebanese border continue to bear the brunt of the conflict.
Northern Israel, particularly areas just kilometres from Lebanon, remains under constant threat from Hezbollah artillery and missile fire, with residents in the Golan Heights reporting frequent shelling.
Overnight, the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) launched a series of airstrikes targeting Hezbollah command centres and weapons storage sites in the southern suburbs of Beirut, including an apartment building in the city centre.
A separate strike reportedly hit a Hezbollah facility in the coastal city of Tahrir. Lebanese state media described the Beirut attack as the second in recent days.
The Lebanese Health Ministry said at least seven people were killed and 11 injured in Al-Shahabiya, southern Lebanon, following an Israeli strike.
In response to the intensifying conflict, the Israeli government is fast-tracking approval of the state budget, agreeing to allocate $13 billion in additional defence spending, with further provisions set aside for potential security scenarios.
Officials described the measures as a necessary investment to strengthen the country’s military response.
