Hezbollah has reportedly launched a Scud-type ballistic missile from Lebanon targeting Israel’s Palmachim Airbase, a critical military and space facility. This marks the first such strike in history, signaling a sharp escalation in the ongoing conflict. The missile, believed to be a modernised variant with advanced guidance, highlights growing regional military coordination involving Iran and allied groups. Israel’s air defences are reportedly under strain following repeated attacks. With ground clashes intensifying and advanced weapons now in play, fears are rising of a wider and more dangerous Middle East war.
