Israeli strikes devastate Lebanon

Lebanon is reeling from a massive wave of Israeli strikes that targeted over 100 sites, resulting in hundreds of civilian casualties.

The Israeli military claims the operations are necessary to dismantle Hezbollah's infrastructure, though international observers have raised alarms over the disproportionate impact on children.

While Israel has authorized talks with the Lebanese state, it continues to reject a ceasefire with the Iran-backed militant group.

The escalating violence threatens to collapse the broader U.S.-mediated truce with Iran as negotiators meet in Pakistan.
