Four IDF soldiers fell in combat in southern Gaza. Reports emerged of Hezbollah's attempt to assassinate former Defense Minister Moshe Ya'alon in Tel Aviv last year. By midday, news broke of 19 Iranian Revolutionary Guards killed in Syria during the previous day's pager operation. In the afternoon, a second wave of explosions targeted Hezbollah's communication devices across Lebanon, reportedly causing hundreds of casualties. Israeli officials hinted at a "new phase" in the war, with Defense Minister Gallant stating the focus has shifted northward. The military moved a division from Gaza to the northern border. Throughout the day, rocket fire from Lebanon into northern Israel continued, met with Israeli counterstrikes. By evening, Lebanese sources reported up to 20 fatalities from the explosions, while Israeli assessments suggested significant damage to Hezbollah's Radwan force.
