AP records Hezbollah entering the war on March 2 by firing rockets at Israel, with Israel retaliating, two days after the U.S.-Israel attack on Iran.

Context

This ties the Lebanon front directly to the Iran war. From this point forward, any Lebanon ceasefire or strike has the potential to restart Iran-Israel exchanges.
