Israeli strike kills 13 in Lebanon pre-ceasefire

In the final moments before a ceasefire came into force, an Israeli strike late on Thursday killed 13 members of a Lebanese family in southern Lebanon. The attack targeted the family of Hassan Abu Khalil, who had miraculously survived six weeks of war but lost all his relatives in this last-minute strike. The incident occurred just before the ceasefire implementation, highlighting the continued violence even as diplomatic efforts sought to pause hostilities. Reuters reported the tragedy, noting Abu Khalil became the sole survivor of his family.
