Hezbollah and Israel faced confrontations in 2023 over border disputes, but Hezbollah stepped up its attacks after Hamas in the Gaza Strip attacked southern Israel on October 7. In September 2024 Israel significantly intensified its air strikes in Lebanon and killed Hezbollah’s leader Hassan Nasrallah. Days later, in October, Israeli ground forces invaded southern Lebanon.
