Israeli forces have launched a ground operation into southern Lebanon, targeting Hezbollah, the Iran-backed militant group. The incursion follows intensified airstrikes that killed Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah.

Axar.az reports that Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant described the operation as crucial but not final, aimed at neutralizing immediate threats near the border.
Hezbollah, engaged in escalating clashes with Israel since the war in Gaza began, has vowed to continue its attacks.
The operation raises concerns over broader regional conflict involving Iran, which backs Hezbollah. The U.S. has warned of the risks of escalation.
