In Lebanon, the Israel Defense Forces launched airstrikes targeting Hezbollah fuel depots in the Beqaa Valley, a move designed to disrupt the logistical capabilities of the group, which is critical for its military operations. These depots were reportedly supplied by Iran and play a significant role in sustaining Hezbollah's operations.

Iran continues to support its proxies across the region, and recent assessments suggest that US officials are grappling with the complexities of Iranian involvement in attacks against US forces. Lawmakers are criticizing the Biden administration for downplaying Iran's role in regional aggression, particularly in light of drone attacks attributed to Iranian-backed militias.In summary, the current landscape reflects a multifaceted conflict involving direct military engagements, international diplomatic tensions, and the ongoing humanitarian concerns associated with the civilian impacts of military operations.
