The Lebanese Health Ministry stated that more than 4,300 people have been killed and 12,200 wounded since Israeli forces launched an invasion of the south on March 2. Israeli forces continue to occupy large areas of southern Lebanon.
The Israeli military released video footage of what it described as hidden tunnels under Beaufort Castle. Officials said the tunnels had housed command centers. Iranian state television reported that Revolutionary Guard naval units fired warning shots at two ships attempting to cross the Strait of Hormuz.
A correspondent near the strait said the vessels were targeted and stopped. Yemen's Presidential Leadership Council said an Iranian flight violated Yemeni airspace and that the government would respond appropriately. The statement accused the Houthi group of receiving the flight outside legal aviation frameworks.
