The day began with ongoing flood alerts in Emilia-Romagna, where two people were reported missing. Attention then shifted to Parma, where a 22-year-old mother was placed under house arrest for the deaths of two newborns found buried. The prosecutor described one infant's death as due to blood loss. By afternoon, focus dramatically shifted to international affairs as Israel conducted a targeted airstrike on Beirut's southern outskirts. Initial reports of civilian casualties, including children, gave way to confirmation that Ibrahim Aqil, a high-ranking Hezbollah commander, had been killed. The strike was described as part of a long-planned operation to neutralize Hezbollah's leadership. As evening approached, the death toll from the Beirut strike rose, with reports varying between 8 and 14 fatalities.
