== Article title ==

While the strikes did happen in both Israel and Lebanon, it appears the damage is totally asymmetric. All of the deaths appear to be in Lebanon. This looks less like cross-border fire and more like a large-scale attack by Israel.''']''' <sub>(Please ] on reply)</sub> 17:48, 23 September 2024 (UTC)

:I don't disagree, but it's also important to mention that the IDF is totally indiscriminate (ie openly targeting civilians) and their military censors hide a lot. So it's unclear just how much damage israel has incurred on the other end as they don't let anyone report on it. ] (]) 18:17, 23 September 2024 (UTC)

:::Yes, indeed.
