Israeli air strikes hit southern Lebanon again as ceasefire talks stall

Israeli forces have launched a second consecutive day of air strikes on southern Lebanon, targeting the town of Mansouri after an explosion killed two Israeli soldiers near Majdel Zoun. Residents describe widespread destruction, damaged homes and renewed displacement as violence escalates despite ongoing US-backed ceasefire talks in Rome. Israel says its military operations are a response to violations of the ceasefire agreement, while Hezbollah has not claimed responsibility for the explosion. The negotiations have shown little sign of progress, with Israel insisting on Hezbollah's disarmament before any further troop withdrawals from southern Lebanon. This report examines the latest developments on the ground, the humanitarian impact on civilians and the diplomatic efforts aimed at preventing a wider conflict.
