Two Israeli soldiers killed in south Lebanon combat, military says

The Israeli military said on Thursday that two soldiers were killed during combat operations in southern Lebanon amid ongoing clashes with Hezbollah along the border.

This brings to four the number of Israeli soldiers killed there, after the military said two were killed on March 8.

The Hezbollah-Israel conflict has become the deadliest spillover of the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran since the Lebanese militant group fired at Israel in support of Tehran on March 2.

Israel has responded with an offensive that has killed more than 1,000 people in Lebanon and has displaced over 1 million.
