Hezbollah Fires Rockets at Israel
Hezbollah said the attack was retaliation for Israeli ceasefire violations, as the truce’s first 10-day phase faces pressure and talks with Lebanon approach.
- On Tuesday, the Israel Defense Forces accused Hezbollah of a "blatant violation" of the 10-day ceasefire after the group launched rockets toward Israeli troops in southern Lebanon.

- Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said on Tuesday that Israel would continue military activity if the Lebanese government fails to disarm Hezbollah through both military and diplomatic means.
- The United States is scheduled to host a second round of ambassador-level talks between Israel and Lebanon on Thursday; the ongoing conflict has killed nearly 2,300 people since March 2.
