Israel Launches Airstrikes on Southern Lebanon Amid Ongoing Conflict
جنوب لبنان

As Israeli airstrikes continue across various regions in Lebanon, Israel carried out five airstrikes today, Thursday, on the town of Tabbineh in southern Lebanon, according to a reporter from Al Arabiya/Al Hadath.

Airstrikes also targeted the towns of Kafra, Majdel Silim, Deir Kifah, and Bint Jbeil with two additional strikes. A vehicle in the city of Sidon was also bombed.

Additionally, rockets were fired at the Upper Galilee region in northern Israel, according to the Al Arabiya/Al Hadath correspondent. Rockets were launched at Akko, Nahariya, and the suburbs of Haifa.

Earlier today, Israel targeted a vehicle on the Arayia road in Mount Lebanon, where a drone struck a car on the Kahaleh-Arayia road, the international route connecting the capital Beirut to the Bekaa Valley (to the east), resulting in the death of a woman and the injury of a man accompanying her.

Furthermore, a Lebanese security source reported that the final toll from a series of Israeli airstrikes on the Bekaa Valley and Baalbek yesterday reached 54 dead and 21 wounded.

The Israeli army announced that its fighter jets attacked 110 targets in Lebanon and the Gaza Strip over the past day. In a statement, it clarified that it targeted 20 sites in Baalbek hermel and north of the Litani River, leading to the deaths of approximately 60 members of Hezbollah.

It also mentioned that among the sites targeted were dozens of Hezbollah installations, including rocket launchers and weapon depots, according to its claims.

It is noteworthy that since September 23, Israel has intensified its airstrikes across various regions in Lebanon, particularly in the south and the Bekaa Valley (to the east), as well as in the southern suburbs of Beirut, which were considered a stronghold for Hezbollah.

At the beginning of October, Israel initiated a "limited ground operation" in the south, as described, where its forces infiltrated several border towns.

Israel aims to push Hezbollah elements north of the Litani River, keeping the buffer zone between the Lebanon-Israel border free of armed groups to enable the return of settlers to the north after they fled from Hezbollah rockets.
