First up — the fight for the Strait of Hormuz continues.

Later in the show — Israel launches ground operations in southern Lebanon. The Israeli military says its forces have begun targeted operations near the strategic border town of Khiam as clashes with Hezbollah intensify along Israel’s northern frontier.
