Israeli airstrikes killed eight people in southern Lebanon on Tuesday, following Trump's claim that Hezbollah agreed to a ceasefire. The IDF struck Hezbollah infrastructure, and a soldier was killed.

- Drone strikes near Marjayoun killed dentist James Karam and his two children. - Strikes in Jibchit, Toul, and near Harouf killed five others.

- Hezbollah fired anti-tank missiles at Israeli troops in Hadatha. - A second round of ceasefire talks is expected in Washington.

The escalation complicates U.S.-Iran negotiations, with conflicting statements from Trump and Iranian media.
