Israel faces a deadly weekend as Hamas kills 4 IDF soldiers in Gaza, including Staff Sgt. Amit Tsadikov, amid a massive 300-rocket attack by Hezbollah. The 20-year-old paratrooper died when an IED exploded in Khan Younis. Hamas mocks Israel, calling Hezbollah's barrage a 'slap in the face' for the IDF. The militant group claims to have lured Israeli troops into a trap before striking.

In response, Israel launches airstrikes on Hezbollah targets in Lebanon. The escalating violence raises fears of a wider regional conflict as Iran-backed groups intensify their assault on Israel. Despite the IDF's efforts to thwart attacks, the mounting casualties underscore the challenges Israel faces on multiple fronts.
