Insufficient Evidence

“Lebanon's Hezbollah group said early Thursday it fired rockets at northern Israel in response to "the violation of the ceasefire agreement."”
SINGLE SOURCE
The provided Wikipedia evidence mentions general conflicts involving Hezbollah and Israel (e.g., 2024 invasion, 2023-present conflict) but does not contain any specific report confirming that Hezbollah fired rockets at northern Israel on a 'Thursday' in response to a 'violation of the ceasefire agreement.' The evidence is too general to corroborate this specific claim.

“The Israeli army on Wednesday launched what it call "the largest coordinated strike across Lebanon" since the start of its "Operation Roaring Lion," Israel's name for its military action against Iran, targeting more than 100 Hezbollah command centers and military sites.”
SINGLE SOURCE
The provided Wikipedia evidence discusses 'Operation Roaring Lion' and strikes in relation to the '2026 Iran war' (February 2026). While it mentions 'Operation Roaring Lion' and strikes, it does not corroborate the specific details of an Israeli strike on 'Wednesday' calling it the largest coordinated strike in Lebanon since that operation, targeting over 100 Hezbollah sites. The evidence is related to a different conflict (Iran war) and a different timeframe/context.
