More casualties reported in Lebanon amid Israeli strikes

At least three civilians were killed and another 15 wounded in renewed Israeli strikes targeting Lebanon, according to the Lebanese National News Agency.

The casualties were reported in Tayr Debba, a municipality in the Tyre District in the South Governorate.

Rescuers are still searching the rubble for potential survivors.

According to the news agency, the Israeli military also targeted several southern parts of Lebanon, as well as the southern suburbs of Beirut.

Israel says it is targeting Hezbollah infrastructure.

Hezbollah, in turn, said it had hit Israeli forces stationed in Al-Aadaissah and those advancing towards Aitaroun. 

The U.S. and Israel launched what they described as a preemptive strike against Iran on February 28, claiming that Tehran was developing a nuclear weapon and posing a threat—an allegation Iran has denied. In response, Iran launched counterattacks, firing missiles and drones at Israel, as well as at U.S. assets and other targets across the Middle East. Israeli strikes in Lebanon began amid the operations.

According to Lebanese authorities, 394 people have been killed and 1,130 wounded in the Israeli strikes.
