Iran fired missiles at Israel late Sunday, the first such bombardment in two months since a ceasefire was announced. The truce, reached in April, does not extend to Lebanon, where Israel has been conducting military operations against Iranian-backed Hezbollah militants. Israel says its actions in Lebanon are intended to defend northern communities from drone and rocket fire. Iran considers Israel’s ground invasion and airstrikes in Lebanon a violation of the ceasefire. Iran insists that any agreement with the United States must include an end to the fighting in Lebanon, a position Israel disagrees with. A fragile ceasefire in the conflict between the United States and Iran was announced, with talks ongoing; Israel is not part of these negotiations. The conflict began on February 28 when the United States and Israel conducted airstrikes in Iran. Hezbollah entered the conflict by firing rockets at Israel on March 2, prompting Israeli retaliation. According to gdelt, Israel bombarded Lebanon's capital, Beirut, killing over 300 people in a 10-minute attack. According to gdelt, Lebanon and Israel held their first direct diplomatic talks in April.
