Israel, which violated the ceasefire from the first day, launched one of the largest airstrikes on Lebanon in recent times, while a notable counter-move came from Iran. The Tehran administration halted the passage of oil tankers through the strategically important Strait of Hormuz, citing Israel's breach of the ceasefire as the reason.
Israel violated the ceasefire on its first day by launching the most comprehensive air operation in Lebanon in recent times. While the attacks caused significant destruction in the country, hopes for a diplomatic solution were replaced by renewed violent clashes.
WIDESPREAD ATTACK FROM ISRAEL
During Israel's attacks on Lebanon, many locations were targeted, resulting in serious damage in the country. The rapid breakdown of the ceasefire raised tensions in the region once again.
HARSH RESPONSE SIGNAL FROM IRAN
Following Israel's attacks, notable statements came from the Iranian front. According to Fars News, the Tehran administration began preparations to respond militarily to Israel and raised its military units to the highest alert level.
HORMUZ STRAIT CLOSED
Iran activated the Hormuz Strait, seen as one of its strongest cards since the beginning of the war. The Tehran administration halted the passage of oil tankers through the Hormuz Strait, citing Israel's ceasefire violation as the reason.
TRUMP ALSO ADDED FUEL TO THE FIRE
While all eyes were on the renewed clashes in the region, U.S. President Trump said, "Lebanon is not part of the agreement. Because of Hezbollah. Hezbollah will also be dealt with," adding fuel to the fire.
DOZENS DEAD, HUNDREDS INJURED
On the other hand, according to the news from Lebanon's official agency NNA, Israeli planes targeted civilians waiting near a cemetery to attend a funeral in the town of Shemstar, located in eastern Lebanon. The Lebanese Ministry of Health reported that, according to initial assessments, dozens of people lost their lives and hundreds were injured in the simultaneous attacks carried out by Israel across the country.
