Israeli forces have set off a huge explosion in the southern Lebanese town of Haddatha, according to Lebanon's National News Agency. This development comes as Israel-Lebanon talks are underway in Rome, aimed at advancing a framework agreement that would involve Israeli forces withdrawing from certain areas.
The explosion in Haddatha occurred on the same day that new guidelines for Israeli strikes in the Gaza Strip were reported. According to Army Radio, all such strikes now require the approval of IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Eyal Zamir, reflecting a tightening of the military's attack policies.
In recent weeks, the IDF has reported killing multiple Gazans from various terrorist groups, including a Palestinian Islamic Jihad Central Gaza Brigade commander and a Jaish al-Islam terrorist. Meanwhile, in Lebanon, the country marked the sixth anniversary of the deadly blast at Beirut port, which killed over 200 people and destroyed parts of the capital.
