An Israeli soldier was severely injured in a recent terrorist attack in Tel Aviv that killed seven people. The soldier, along with 11 others, was wounded in the attack claimed by the Palestinian Mujahidin Movement. Israeli forces conducted targeted strikes in Beirut on weapons production sites embedded under residential buildings by Hezbollah. In response to an Iranian missile attack, the Israeli ambassador to the U.N. stated that Israel’s response will be noticed and painful. The U.S. Embassy in Israel has lifted its shelter-in-place order, with travel restrictions still in place. Hezbollah claimed to have forced Israeli soldiers to retreat from a Lebanese town, and Israel has sent more ground troops into Lebanon to target Hezbollah. Iran warned of an even tougher response to any Israeli retaliation following its major ballistic missile attack on Israel. Israeli officials reported that most of the missiles were intercepted, and there were no casualties. These events are part of ongoing tensions and conflict between Israel, Iran, and Hezbollah in the region.
