Israeli Airstrikes Kill Several in Southern Lebanon Amid Ongoing TensionsPreviousNext

Israeli airstrikes on southern Lebanon killed at least seven to eleven people, including children, in attacks on the villages of Ansar and Deir al-Zahrani. The strikes targeted homes and areas linked to Hezbollah infrastructure, according to Israeli military statements. These are the deadliest attacks since a June truce and a U.S.-mediated framework agreement aimed at Israeli withdrawal and Hezbollah disarmament. Lebanese officials condemned the strikes, emphasizing civilian casualties and criticizing the impact on regional stability amid ongoing tensions.
