Thousands gathered for funeral services of children and young people killed in a rocket strike in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights. World leaders worked to prevent further escalation amid accusations and denials of responsibility.
The White House claimed Hezbollah carried out the attack, resulting in 12 deaths. In response, Israeli forces targeted Hezbollah in Lebanon and faced retaliatory strikes on their own bases.
Tensions have been rising between Israel and Hezbollah, leading to a series of cross-border attacks. The strike in Golan Heights impacted the Druze community, with children as young as 10 among the victims.
Leaders from various countries condemned the violence and called for de-escalation, urging the parties involved to cease hostilities and work towards a ceasefire.
