By Laila Bassam BEIRUT, March 5 (Reuters) - Hezbollah has deployed elite fighters to confront Israeli forces in southern Lebanon, sending them back into the border region from which they withdrew after a war in 2024,

Overnight, one Israeli operation saw at least 41 people killed and 40 injured, according to the Lebanese health ministry.

In the pre-dawn hours of Monday morning, Hezbollah opened a new front in the US-Israeli war against Iran when it launched “missiles and a swarm of drones” at a military base in northern Israel.

In recent days, the Israeli military has issued broad evacuation warnings across southern Lebanon, raising concerns that it may be about to launch a ground invasion. The Israeli military has also pushed into Lebanon to fight Hezbollah and is massing armored vehicles along the border.

Israel’s military carried out an airborne operation that dropped troops into a town in eastern Lebanon overnight, residents and Lebanese state media said on Saturday, as heavy Israeli strikes on the area left more than a dozen people dead.

For decades, Iran has protected itself with a network of well-funded, heavily armed and deeply radicalized militant groups. But just when they are needed most, many of the main players are staying on the sidelines,

Days into its offensive against Hezbollah, Israel is massing armored vehicles near the Lebanese border for a potentially much larger ground incursion.
