Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah pledged "tough retribution" against Israel after "unprecedented" attacks on communication devices killed 37 operatives and wounded nearly 3,000.
Israel responded with extensive airstrikes, targeting approximately 100 launchers and terrorist infrastructure in Lebanon, signaling a shift in its war focus to the northern border.
The escalating conflict, marked by the device blasts and retaliatory strikes, intensifies fears of a wider regional war, despite international calls for de-escalation.

President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
