Israeli airstrikes target south Lebanon

Israeli airstrikes on Thursday targeted the hills of al-Jarmaq and al-Mahmoudiyeh near the Jezzine district town of al-Aishiyeh.

The Israeli army said the strikes targeted "Hezbollah terrorist infrastructure, including a launcher and tunnel shaft in the area of Mahmoudiyeh in southern Lebanon."

Separately, the National News Agency said an Israeli drone strike hit an area 200 meters away from a Lebanese Army post in the al-Labbouneh area in Naqoura, shortly after warplanes waged a strike nearby.

Hezbollah’s al-Manar television meanwhile said that “the sound that was heard in al-Labbouneh near Naqoura resulted from the Lebanese Army's detonation of unexploded ordnance.”

An Israeli drone strike later targeted the public road in the southern town of Harouf, causing a minor injury, as another strike hit a shepherd’s house in Shebaa and caused casualties, NNA said.

Israeli drones meanwhile resumed their overflights above Beirut and its southern suburbs while Israeli warplanes were spotted flying at a high altitude over Beirut.
