Lebanon's Army Responds to Israeli Airstrike

The Lebanese army has issued orders for its soldiers to reinforce their positions and be prepared to return fire after an Israeli airstrike near the southern border. The incident occurred in the Marjayoun area, where a low-altitude Israeli drone was seen issuing threats to Lebanese personnel. Lebanon claims that Israel is responsible for the attack and has warned of potential consequences if conflict escalates further.

International tensions are high as the US envoy's comments have raised concerns about possible US-Iran confrontation, which could involve Lebanon-based groups like Hezbollah. The situation remains unstable with ongoing military operations and diplomatic efforts to mediate the conflict.
