Israeli Strikes on Southern Lebanon Kill 19, Including Children and Women, Officials Say

Lebanon’s Health Ministry said the strikes hit Hezbollah infrastructure and brought the latest round’s death toll above 3,000.

  • Israeli airstrikes on southern Lebanon killed at least 19 people on Tuesday, including four women and three children, Lebanon's Health Ministry said, continuing violence despite the fragile, United States-brokered ceasefire in the Israel-Hezbollah war.
  • Combat between Israel and Hezbollah has intensified despite a 45-day extension of the United States-brokered truce begun on April 17, with the death toll in this round of fighting recently surpassing 3,000.
  • Strikes in Deir Qanoun, Nabatieh, and Kfar Sir killed 10, four, and five people respectively, while state-run National News Agency reported strikes destroyed houses, leaving civilians trapped under rubble.
  • Between Monday afternoon and Tuesday afternoon, the Israeli military targeted more than 25 sites of Hezbollah infrastructure in southern Lebanon, while one soldier died in battle, raising Israel's troop death toll to 21.
  • More than a million people have been displaced in Lebanon by the fighting, with many sheltering in tents along the Mediterranean Sea in Beirut, as persistent attacks strain the fragile ceasefire.
