Israel targets Hezbollah sites after drone attack in south Lebanon
Israel said it struck Hezbollah operatives and infrastructure in south Lebanon after a drone attack the day before, targeting weapons storage, terrorist structures and a Hezbollah command centre reportedly inside a former hospital. Lebanese authorities reported at least seven dead and about 20 wounded across Nabatieh al-Fawqa, Arab Salim, Nabatieh city and Kfar Rumman, and said the out-of-service Ghandour hospital was destroyed. Lebanon's president urged the United States and the international community to act after strikes damaged government premises. Israel said it suffered no casualties and has recently taken control of the Ali al-Taher ridge.
Israeli strikes killed at least seven people in south Lebanon.
Context
Hezbollah attacked Israel in March and Israel then entered Lebanon. Violence eased after a US-Iran memorandum and an Israel-Lebanon framework in June. New strikes could prompt more international diplomatic steps or local reprisals.
