Israel foils Hezbollah missile attack targeting Mossad headquarters

Israeli air defence systems intercepted a missile launched from Lebanon as the war on the country’s northern border intensified on Wednesday. Hezbollah said it had fired a rocket targeting the headquarters of the Israeli spy agency, Mossad, near Tel Aviv, Reuters reported.
Thousands of people fled southern Lebanon as Israel intensified strikes against the Iran-backed Hezbollah militant organisation, resulting in 558 deaths, according to Lebanon’s health minister, CNN reported.
Amid two days of intense Israeli attacks, panic-stricken civilians continued to flee southern Lebanon, crowding main roads and gas stations en route to the capital. United Nations (UN) and Lebanese officials on Tuesday stated that 27,000 displaced individuals had been settled in temporary shelters, while many others were forced to sleep in cars, parks, and along the beach.
