On 1 October 2024, Israel invaded southern Lebanon in an escalation of the ongoing Israel–Hezbollah conflict, a spillover of the Israel–Hamas war. It followed a series of major attacks on Hezbollah in September that degraded its capabilities[39][40] and devastated its leadership;[41][42] beginning with the explosions of its communication devices.[43][44] This was followed by an Israeli aerial bombing campaign against Hezbollah throughout Lebanon.[45] On 27 September, Israel assassinated Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in an airstrike.[46][47] Some Israeli sources have called the conflict the Third Lebanon War.[48][49]
On 30 September, Israel declared parts of its northern border with Lebanon as closed military zones.[50] At the start of the invasion, the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) withdrew from parts of the Blue Line.[51]
According to Israel,[52] the operation seeks to root out Hezbollah's forces and infrastructure that could pose a threat to civilian communities in northern Israel.[53][54][55] Hezbollah said it aimed to pressure Israel by forcing it to fight on two fronts.[45]

"In accordance with the decision of the political echelon, a few hours ago, the IDF began limited, localized, and targeted ground raids based on precise intelligence against Hezbollah terrorist targets and infrastructure in southern Lebanon. These targets are located in villages close to the border and pose an immediate threat to Israeli communities in northern Israel. The IDF is operating according to a methodical plan set out by the General Staff and the Northern Command which IDF soldiers have trained and prepared for in recent months. The Israeli Air Force and IDF Artillery are supporting the ground forces with precise strikes on military targets in the area. These operations were approved and carried out in accordance with the decision of the political echelon. Operation "Northern Arrows" will continue according to the situational assessment and in parallel to combat in Gaza and in other arenas. The IDF is continuing to operate to achieve the goals of the war and is doing everything necessary to defend the citizens of Israel and return the citizens of northern Israel to their homes" (Tweet).
