Intense Israeli raids on southern Lebanon amid ongoing escalation

Israeli aircraft carried out a series of raids and strikes on several areas in southern Lebanon, including the towns of Al-Tiri, Baraashit, Nabatieh Al-Fawqa, and Wadi Al-Saluki, while bombings targeted the towns of Beit Yahoun and Beit Lev.

Israeli artillery bombed Wadi Al-Hujair and the towns of Hadada and Haris, while warplanes launched two raids on the town of Bani Hayyan in the Marjayoun district.

Our correspondent reported that the bombing also included the towns of Al-Mansouri, Zibqin, and the suburbs of Baraashit, amid continued Israeli overflights over the south.

No information was immediately announced about any casualties or the extent of damage resulting from the strikes.

This comes as Israel continues to escalate its military operations in southern Lebanon, through air strikes, artillery shelling, and bombing operations targeting towns in the districts of Tyre, Bint Jbeil, Nabatieh, and Marjayoun, amid faltering negotiations and threats to launch a new phase of fighting.
