Heavy fighting along Israel’s northern border has intensified, with 36 Israeli soldiers injured in the past 48 hours, bringing the total wounded to 411 since the war began. The latest casualties follow a deadly Hezbollah ambush in southern Lebanon, where coordinated rocket and mortar fire targeted Israeli troops during a sensitive river-crossing operation. At least one soldier was killed and over 20 others wounded. Israeli officials now admit they may have underestimated Hezbollah’s capabilities. Meanwhile, intelligence warnings indicate Iran still possesses over 1,000 ballistic missiles, raising fears of prolonged conflict and a rapidly escalating multi-front war across the region.
