Israel has ordered people in dozens of border villages in southern Lebanon to evacuate immediately." It has carried out airstrikes on the suburbs of Beirut. Israel says its attacks are in response to Hezbollah's firing of rockets and drones into northern Israel, killing more than 50 people. Hezbollah, which is a strong supporter of the Iranian government, carried out the attacks in retaliation for Israel's war in Iran, and the killing of the country's Supreme Leader over the weekend.
