Israel Hezbollah War Live Updates: Israel widens ground operations in Lebanon as it continues striking Beirut
Israel Hezbollah War Live Updates: The Israeli military widened its ground offensive by sending more troops into Lebanon as it continued pounding strikes in the Lebanese capital Beirut's southern suburbs, a stronghold of the group. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israeli airstrikes had killed two successors to Hezbollah's slain leader, as Israel expanded its ground offensive against the Iran-backed group with a fourth army division deployed into south Lebanon. Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant said Hashem Safieddine, the man expected to succeed Nasrallah, had probably been "eliminated". It was not immediately clear what Netanyahu meant by the "replacement of the replacement".
