Israeli Airstrikes in Southern Lebanon Kill 11 Amid Hezbollah Tensions

Israeli Airstrikes in Southern Lebanon Kill 11 Amid Hezbollah TensionsPreviousNext

Israeli airstrikes on southern Lebanon killed at least 11 people, including three children and two women, in the deadliest attacks since a truce between Israel and Hezbollah began in June. The strikes targeted Hezbollah infrastructure in Ansar and Deir el-Zahrani, following earlier Hezbollah attacks that injured three Israeli soldiers. Lebanon's Prime Minister condemned the strikes, emphasizing civilian casualties, while Israel accused Hezbollah of using civilians as shields. Hezbollah vowed to respond appropriately amid ongoing tensions along the Israel-Lebanon border.
