Hezbollah said bombs its fighters planted exploded under an Israeli convoy of eight tanks passing Deir Siryan on Sunday afternoon, destroying four. It was the group’s first claimed attack since the 10-day ceasefire took effect; the Israeli military did not immediately comment.
Why it matters
The claim marked Hezbollah’s first acknowledged use of force under the truce and a test of its pledge to respond to Israeli violations.
