Israeli troops are understood to have made their deepest incursion into southern Lebanese territory since the recent offensive began on October 1, as the militant group Hezbollah considered its response to a fresh ceasefire proposal.

Hezbollah, the Lebanese Islamic group, is considering a ceasefire proposal from the United States and Israel. This signals a shift in diplomatic efforts to end the conflict in the Middle East, according to CNN.

Hamas official Basem Naim said that Hamas does not regret attacking Israel on October 7 and instead said that Israel should “be guilty” of carrying out “big massacres” in Palestine
