Israeli strikes in southern Lebanon have left 11 people dead, local authorities said. The attacks targeted areas near the border, where tensions have been high for months.
In a statement, the Israeli military said it hit Hezbollah-related “terror infrastructure.” Israel described the strikes as a response to earlier actions against its soldiers. Hezbollah is an armed group and political movement in Lebanon, and Israel views it as a major threat to its security.
The incident underscores how quickly violence can escalate between the two sides. While authorities reported the death toll, they did not provide full details about each site hit. Investigations and assessments are expected to continue as officials work to confirm the facts, including the extent of damage and the circumstances of the casualties.
