STORYLINE:
Fire erupted near Israel's border with Lebanon on Tuesday as the country and Hezbollah militant group continue to trade fire daily.
Residents of northern Israel remained guarded on Tuesday about the possibility of a second war front opening along the country's border with Lebanon.
The war has also threatened to ignite fighting on other fronts.
Israel and the U.S. have struck targets in Syria linked to Iran, which supports Hamas, Hezbollah and other armed groups in the region.
The Israel-Hamas war started after Hamas militants from the Gaza Strip blew through Israel's highly fortified separation wall on October 7, and attacked an open-air music festival and Israeli border communities.
They killed scores of people and abducted men, women, and children - including elderly and disabled.
Israel launched airstrikes on the Gaza Strip and sealed it off from food, fuel and other supplies in retaliation for a bloody incursion, vowing to destroy the militant group.
The war is the deadliest of five Gaza wars for both sides.
