Israeli army says targeted suspected militants in south Lebanon airstrike

The Israeli military said it carried out an airstrike on Saturday targeting suspected militants in the Nabatieh area of southern Lebanon, the first such attack since Washington announced a framework agreement between Israel and Lebanon.

An Israeli military spokeswoman told AFP that the strike targeted "suspected terrorists who posted a threat to IDF (Israeli army) soldiers" in the Nabatieh area.

"The results of the strike are still being assessed," she said.
