The time is now 6:00 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In Regional Impacts, authorities report ongoing clashes and civilian casualties after Israeli air strikes in southern Lebanon, raising concerns about stability in the region. The Lebanese Army said the attacks are aimed at preventing the return of stability and obstructing any solution to restore stability in Lebanon, and a Lebanese soldier was killed. A senior Hezbollah official said the group will not allow Israel freedom of movement in occupied Lebanese territory. An Israeli military official said the IDF struck Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon after Hezbollah fired over 50 projectiles at Israeli soldiers, and that stability between Israel and Lebanon would be achievable if Hezbollah stops violating the ceasefire. Reports indicate that in the town of Arabsalim, at least five people were killed in an Israeli air strike on Saturday morning, with later figures rising to at least ten. The strikes across Lebanon were described as causing casualties and extensive property damage.
