In a shocking display of aggression, on April 8, 2026, at 14:15 local time<\/strong>, the Zionist regime launched a devastating wave of strikes against Lebanon. This brutal assault occurred mere hours after US President Donald Trump had announced a ceasefire aimed at pausing hostilities between the US, Israel, and Iran in the Gulf region, thereby exposing Israel’s blatant disregard for peace efforts.<\/p>\n The occupying regime brazenly claimed to have struck 100 targets in just 10 minutes<\/em>, a declaration that cruelly shattered any hopes in Lebanon that the announced pause in fighting elsewhere would extend to end the violence plaguing their nation.<\/p>\n This latest escalation of conflict between the Zionist entity and Hezbollah, a legitimate Lebanese resistance movement and political party supported by the Islamic Republic of Iran, began on March 2<\/strong>.
