## Resource

Israel launches its largest military operation in Lebanon in over two decades, pushing past the Litani River toward Hezbollah’s stronghold in Nabatieh after over 300 missile attacks. Prime Minister Netanyahu declares control of key terrain, signaling a hardline shift, while thousands flee amid rising casualties and a deepening humanitarian crisis. Diplomatic talks led by the U.S. struggle to bridge gaps—Lebanon demands a full ceasefire, Israel insists Hezbollah must be removed, and Iran ties its own peace prospects to Lebanon’s fate, as no final deal emerges amid mounting tensions.
