On Tuesday, Sgt. Ira Yair Gispan, a 19-year-old Israeli soldier, was killed during combat in the southern Gaza Strip, marking the first IDF fatality in their advance into Rafah. This brings the total number of Israeli troops killed in the offensive against Hamas to 273. The IDF's operations in Rafah, which began last week, aim to target Hamas precisely. During these operations, the Givati Brigade raided a Hamas training camp, killing several gunmen and capturing weapons. Nearly 450,000 Palestinians have evacuated Rafah due to intensified IDF operations. Rafah is believed to house significant Hamas forces, leadership, and potential hostages, but international pressure has prevented a full-scale offensive.

The recent meeting between Hassan Nasrallah of Hezbollah and Khalil al-Hayya of Hamas, reported by Al Mayadeen news, focused on Gaza developments, ceasefire talks, and broader regional issues. The encounter emphasised solidarity within the Iran-aligned "axis of resistance" against Israel. Escalating tensions include Hezbollah's attacks on northern Israel and Israel's warnings of military action in southern Lebanon. A senior Hezbollah commander's death led to rocket strikes on Israel, intensifying the conflict, with both sides employing advanced weaponry. The situation remains precarious along the Israel-Lebanon border.

In the ongoing conflict between Hezbollah and Israel, tensions reached a critical point when a senior Hezbollah commander, Hussein Ibrahim Makki, was killed in an Israeli drone strike. In retaliation, Hezbollah launched 60 rockets into Israel, targeting a sensitive air traffic control base. Although some rockets were intercepted, minor damage occurred. The conflict has seen escalating violence, with Hezbollah employing advanced tactics like downing drones and launching deeper strikes into Israel. Israel has responded with airstrikes and targeting border villages. Despite international concerns, both sides continue aggressive actions, leaving the situation on the Israel-Lebanon border volatile.
