Hezbollah targeted Monday gatherings of Israeli troops near the Mattat and the Ramim barracks, surveillance equipment in Metula, and the post of Birkat Risha with Burkan rockets .

Israel shelled the southerns towns of Dhaira, al-Jebbayn, Tayr Harfa, Aita al-Shaab, Hanine, Shihine, al-Hamames hill near al-Khiam, the Marjeyoun plain, and Em el-Tout.

Two "civilians" were killed in northern Israel on Sunday after an anti-tank missile fired from Lebanon hit their home in a town near the border, Israeli rescuers said.

The missile hit a home in the town of Yuval in northern Israel, killing a man in his 40s and his mother, who was in her 70s, the rescuers said. Although Yuval is one of more than 40 towns along the northern border evacuated by the government in October, Israeli media reported that the family stayed in the area because they work in agriculture. Hezbollah meanwhile said that the attack targeted an Israeli military force and inflicted deaths and injuries.

Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah stressed Sunday that Hezbollah does not not fear war or U.S. and Israeli threats, while emphasizing that his group will not negotiate over the situation on the border before the end of Israel’s war on Gaza.

“We will continue and our front is inflicting defeats on the enemy,” Nasrallah said in a televised speech commemorating Hezbollah senior military commander Wissam Tawil, who was assassinated by Israel on Monday.

Hezbollah on Sunday appeared to have intensified its attacks on Israeli posts compared to the past few days, hours before a speech by Hezbollah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah marking one week since Israel’s assassination of senior Hezbollah military commander Wissam Tawil.

In a statement, Hezbollah said it attacked an Israeli force in the Kfar Yuval area in northern Israel, causing deaths and injuries.

Israeli soldiers detained two sisters of Saleh al-Arouri, a top leader of Hamas who was killed in Lebanon this month, Palestinian sources and the Israeli army said on Sunday.

The killing of Arouri, the deputy chief of Hamas, in a southern suburb of Beirut on January 2 was widely attributed to an Israeli drone strike, fuelling fears that Israel's war in Gaza could widen into a regional conflict.

Israeli troops on Sunday killed three militants who crossed in from Lebanon into the occupied Shebaa Farms, the Israeli army said, as tensions surge on the 100th day of the Israel-Hamas war.

Since Israel's war with Hamas in the Gaza Strip erupted on October 7, the Israel-Lebanon border has seen near-daily exchanges of fire between Hezbollah militants and Israeli forces.

The Israeli army on Saturday waged a "preemptive attack" on south Lebanon and its warplanes attacked "Hezbollah targets,” Israel’s Channel 12 said.

Lebanon’s National News Agency for its part said that Israeli warplanes destroyed a house in the border town of Yarin, causing casualties, amid reports of an airstrike on the border town of Mays al-Jabal and artillery shelling on the outskirts of Aita al-Shaab and Rmeish.

U.N. Under-Secretary-General for Peace Operations Jean-Pierre Lacroix has concluded a four-day visit to Lebanon.

Caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati on Friday noted that pacifying the situation in south Lebanon without taking into consideration what’s happening in Gaza would be “illogical.”

“We have told all envoys that talking about pacification exclusively in Lebanon is an illogical thing,” Mikati said at the beginning of a Cabinet session.

The U.S. administration has tasked a Dutch envoy with visiting Lebanon and meeting with Hezbollah’s leadership, a media report said on Friday.

“This is what happened over the past two weeks,” the Nidaa al-Watan newspaper reported.
