Four people were killed on Saturday in Israeli strikes on southern Lebanon, Lebanon’s state news agency reported, a day after six people were killed in the highest toll during the ceasefire that was recently extended.
The Israeli military said it had struck loaded rocket launchers belonging to Iran-backed group Hezbollah in three locations in southern Lebanon overnight.
“These launchers posed an immediate threat to IDF (Israel Defence Forces) soldiers and to Israeli civilians,” it said in a statement.
It named the locations as Deir El Zahrani, Reman, and Al-Saamiya in southern Lebanon, all north of its so-called buffer zone.
