Middle East updates: IDF says 10 Hezbollah targets hit

The Israeli military says it has also killed a member of the militant group. Meanwhile, a UK-based observatory said that Israel attacked two military bases in Syria. Israel says it has hit Hezbollah targets in Lebanon after 12 children and young adults were killed in a rocket strike while playing football in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights.

The country’s air force has blamed the Iran-backed militant group for Saturday’s strike on the Druze town of Majdal Shams, but Hezbollah has strongly denied any involvement.

Early on Sunday, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said it had conducted air strikes against seven Hezbollah targets “deep inside Lebanese territory”. It is unclear whether there were any casualties.

The rising tensions have the potential to trigger an all-out war between Israel and Hezbollah. Their forces have ? exchanged fire since 7 October when Hamas attacked Israel, triggering Israel’s military offensive on Gaza.
