Hezbollah drone attack on army base kills 4 Israeli soldiers and injures dozens

• A Hezbollah drone attack on an Israeli army base on Sunday resulted in the deaths of four soldiers and left more than 60 people injured, according to first responders and Israeli military reports. This is one of the deadliest attacks on Israel since the war began in October. Israel's military is investigating how the drone was able to breach its airspace without triggering an alert.

• The United States announced it will send an advanced anti-missile system, along with U.S. troops to operate it, to Israel in response to the country’s need for stronger air defenses after unprecedented attacks from Iran this year, according to the Pentagon.

• Despite recent attacks, which left some personnel injured, the United Nations confirmed that peacekeepers remain stationed at all posts in Lebanon. However, concerns are growing over their safety, particularly in southern Lebanon, where they have come under fire from Israeli forces.

• In Gaza, at least 13 children were among 40 people killed in Israeli airstrikes on Sunday. Over the last nine days, Israeli bombardments on Gaza's largest refugee camp have claimed the lives of over 300 people. In its intensifying offensive in northern Gaza, Israel has issued evacuation orders to hospitals and cut off food supplies to the area.
