LEBANON – Israel launched new airstrikes on southern Lebanon on Thursday, according to local reports.
Warplanes struck the outskirts of Deir Seryan & Adaisseh in the Marjayoun district, with additional strikes targeting the towns of Tallousa and Touline, according to the national news agency NNA.
In the Nabatieh area, Israeli fighter jets launched raids on the towns of Jibchit and Nabatieh al-Fawqa, while a similar strike hit Zawtar al-Gharbiya and the area between Abba and Jibchit. NNA also reported an airstrike on the Universities neighborhood in the city of Nabatieh.
Separately, a vehicle was struck on the Zahle-Karak highway, according to the agency.
Israeli artillery also shelled the course of the Litani River near Serira in the Jezzine area, NNA added.
No information was yet available about casualties following these attacks.
An entire family of 4 was killed in Zawtar al-Sharqiyeh.
The situation escalated in Lebanon on Monday after Hezbollah targeted a military site in northern Israel with rockets and drones in response to ongoing Israeli airstrikes and the killing of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei in a US-Israeli attack.
The Israeli army launched a series of airstrikes in response, killing at least 72 people and injuring nearly 450 others. The military also launched a ground incursion into southern Lebanon.
Israel has repeatedly violated a ceasefire agreement with Hezbollah, signed in November 2024, carrying out near-daily strikes that have left hundreds dead and wounded.
Israel began its offensive against Lebanon in October 2023 and escalated it into a full-scale war in September 2024, killing more than 4,000 people and wounding about 17,000.
Israeli Airstrikes on Tehran Reported
New explosions were heard across Iran’s capital Tehran on Thursday as Israeli forces announced a new wave of strikes targeting the city.
Iran’s semi-official Mehr News Agency reported that Israeli attacks targeted locations west of Tehran, adding that explosions were also heard in the southern and southeastern areas of the capital.
In a statement, the Israeli military said that it has begun “an additional wave of strikes in Tehran.”
The attacks came as Israel and the US have continued a large-scale attack on Iran since Saturday, killing at least 926 people, including Khamenei and top military officials.
Iran has retaliated with drone and missile strikes targeting Israel as well as Gulf countries that are home to US military assets.
