Eleven people were killed in Israeli strikes in southern Lebanon, local authorities said. The attacks took place in border areas, where tensions have been high for months. In a statement, Israel’s military said it targeted what it described as “Hezbollah terror infrastructure.” It framed the strikes as a response to earlier incidents that, according to Israel, involved actions against its soldiers. Hezbollah, which operates in Lebanon and has been involved in cross-border confrontations, has not been described in the report as accepting responsibility for the earlier events. Still, the Israeli explanation suggests the strikes were meant to reduce threats and deter future attacks.
