An Israeli airstrike in southern Lebanon killed five people, including four US citizens (three children and their father). Israel claimed it targeted a Hezbollah operative but acknowledged civilian casualties. Lebanon's government condemned the attack as a "massacre," calling for international condemnation. The US State Department has yet to comment, while the UN expressed outrage at the killing of the children. This incident follows a US-brokered ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah, which has been repeatedly violated.
