Israel claims it killed a Hezbollah commander in southern Lebanon strike
Israel's army spokesperson Avichay Adraee claimed Wednesday that the military killed the commander of Hezbollah's Yater compound in an airstrike in southern Lebanon on Tuesday.
According to Adraee, the commander had "orchestrated attacks" against Israeli forces and had recently attempted to rebuild the compound, which the army described as a violation of existing agreements.

Israel aid blockage making Gaza 'hungriest region on earth,' UN office says
Israel is blocking all but a trickle of humanitarian aid from entering Gaza, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said, with almost no ready-to-eat food entering what its spokesperson described as "the hungriest place on earth." Spokesperson Jens Laerke said only 600 of 900 aid trucks had been authorized to get to Israel's border with Gaza, and from there, a mixture of bureaucratic and security obstacles made it all but impossible to carry aid into the region safely. "What we have been able to bring in is flour," he told a regular news conference on Friday. "That's not ready to eat, right? It needs to be cooked... 100% of the population of Gaza is at risk of famine." Tommaso della Longa, a spokesperson for the International Committee of the Red Cross and the Red Crescent, added that half of its medical facilities in the region were out of action due to a lack of fuel or medical equipment.
