There is a notable increase in cross-border hostilities, with evolving tactics. Rockets launched from Lebanon now reach deeper into Israel, and Israel is targeting areas farther into Lebanon. An Israeli settlement was hit, not a military position, marking a shift. Hezbollah used a ground-to-air missile to down an Israeli drone. Hezbollah’s casualty rate dropped recently; it’s unclear if this reflects a strategy shift to minimize losses or an escalation in the conflict.

Hamas’s al-Qassam Brigades has released two captives from Gaza after Qatari and Egyptian mediation, spokesman Abu Obaida says. The two captives are Nurit Yitzhak and Yocheved Levschitz, al-Qassam Brigades said in a statement on Telegram. These are the same two captives that the group tried to release on Friday, but Israel had refused to take them, Abu Obaida said. “We decided to release them for humanitarian and medical reasons.” Al Jazeera’s Tareq Abu Azzoum is in Khan Younis, Gaza for the latest updates.

Last night’s statement by Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian is seen as the strongest yet, warning of the possibility of a preemptive strike in the coming hours. He said groups backed by Iran will not allow Israel to do what it wants in Gaza. Among those groups is Lebanon’s Hezbollah, which has been engaged with Israel along the border for more than a week now. That cross-border exchange of fire has so far been largely limited in scope, confined to the border areas and military targets. Hezbollah describes what is taking place along the border as skirmishes and a warning, while Israel describes it as below the level of escalation. […]
As expected, a Russian-drafted Security Council resolution has failed to gather the required minimum of nine votes in the UN after the US-led opposition towards it for being insufficiently critical of Hamas. The draft called for a humanitarian ceasefire between Israel and Hamas as well as the release of captives held in Gaza and the safe evacuation of civilians. The US accused Russia of giving “cover” to Hamas after the group was not mentioned in the resolution. The US is continuing to urge Israel to minimise the risk of civilian casualties, according to an envoy. Al Jazeera’s Gabriel Elizondo reports from the United Nations headquarters in New York.
