Israeli airstrikes on southern Lebanon kill at least seven people and wounded others on Saturday as hostilities continue between Israel and Hizbollah despite a ceasefire.
The Israeli airstrikes on southern Lebanon on Saturday came as Israel’s military issued a new warning for residents of nine southern villages to evacuate.
Israel’s military and Lebanon’s Hizbollah have kept up their attacks despite a ceasefire in place since April 17.
Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency reported an airstrike on a car in the village of Kfar Dajal that killed 2 people, while another hit a home in the village of Lwaizeh killing three. NNA also reported a strike on the village of Shoukin that killed two people.
Israel’s military Arabic-language spokeswoman, Lt. Col. Ella Waweya, posted on X that the Israeli air force carried out about 50 airstrikes over the past 24 hours, saying that they targeted Hizbollah infrastructure and members.
Hizbollah said that it attacked on Saturday Israeli troops who gathered inside a house in the coastal village of Bayed with a drone.
The latest war between Israel and Hizbollah began on March 2, when Hizbollah fired rockets into northern Israel two days after the United States and Israel launched a war on its main backer, Iran. Israel has since carried out hundreds of airstrikes and launched a ground invasion of southern Lebanon, capturing dozens of towns and villages along the border.
Since then Lebanon and Israel have held their first direct talks in more than three decades. The two countries have formally been in a state of war since the founding of the state of Israel in 1948.
A 10-day ceasefire declared in Washington went into effect on April 17. The ceasefire was later extended by three weeks.
