Nestled in the mountains of northern Lebanon, a museum dedicated to Kahlil Gibran in his hometown of Bsharre has been celebrating the centennial of "The Prophet", the renowned author's most famous work.

Since it was first published in the United States in 1923, millions of copies of "The Prophet" have been sold worldwide, with the book becoming a literary classic that has been translated into dozens of languages from the original English.

Hezbollah on Sunday said it fired rockets at Israel’s north in response to the killing of Lebanese civilians in an Israeli drone strike earlier in the day.

“In response to the brutal and ugly crime that the Zionist enemy committed this afternoon by targeting a civilian car on the al-Maaysra road between Ainata and Aitaroun, which resulted in the martyrdom of a woman and her three toddler grandchildren, the jihadi fighters of the Islamic Resistance shelled the Kiryat Shmona settlement with several Katyusha rockets,” Hezbollah said in a statement.

Four relatives of a journalist were killed on Sunday in an Israeli strike in southern Lebanon, the official Lebanese news agency said, adding that the journalist was also wounded.

The border area between Lebanon and Israel has seen multiple exchanges of fire, in particular between Hezbollah and Israel, since the start of the Israel-Hamas war triggered by the Palestinian group's October 7 attacks.

Hezbollah said Sunday that it targeted an Israeli military vehicle across the border with guided missiles, killing and wounding its crew members.

The Israeli military confirmed in a statement that an antitank missile was launched from Lebanon at Yiftah in northern Israel, and said it was striking the sources of fire. It did not confirm whether there were casualties.

Four paramedics were wounded when an Israeli drone bombed an ambulance for the Amal Movement-affiliated Islamic Risala Scout Association on the outskirts of the south Lebanon town of Tayr Harfa.

The National News Agency said the injuries ranged from light to moderate.

Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant has visited troops on Israel's northern border with Israel and reiterated that Israel had no interest in engaging in a war there.

"But we are prepared for every mission," Gallant said in a statement.

Caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati and Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi have urged the international community to intensify efforts to "contain the situation" between Israel and the Palestinians and avert expanding the scope of violence."

Mikati flew to Cairo on Saturday for talks with al-Sisi after his meeting with U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken in the Jordanian capital of Amman.

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken thanked caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati during their meeting in Jordan for his leadership “in preventing Lebanon from being pulled into a war that the Lebanese people do not want,” the U.S. State Department said.

Mikati for his part stressed “the priority of working for a ceasefire in Gaza to halt the continuous Israeli aggression there, and also working on stopping the Israeli aggression against south Lebanon,” Lebanon’s National News Agency said.

Israeli warplanes conducted airstrikes along the border with Lebanon Saturday after Hezbollah attacked several Israeli army posts.

The escalation came a day after Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said his powerful group is already engaged in unprecedented fighting along the Lebanon-Israel border. He threatened a further escalation as Israel's war in Gaza with Hamas, Hezbollah's ally, nears the one-month mark.

Progressive Socialist Party former leader Walid Jumblat has described Hezbollah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah’s speech on the military developments in Gaza and south Lebanon as “very realistic.”

“He was very realistic in describing the plight of the Palestinian people and the Israeli occupation of the past 75 years, in addition to the situation in Gaza and the bombardment of civilians,” Jumblat said in an interview with al-Jadeed television.
