Israel-Hezbollah conflict: Latest developments

Israeli warplanes on Saturday bombed a house in the southern town of Majdal Zoun, totally destroying it, prompting emergency crews and paramedics to head to the area, the National News Agency said.

Earlier on Saturday, an Israeli drone fired a missile at an empty house in the southern border town of Blida, NNA said.

Hezbollah meanwhile said it fired a heavy-caliber Burkan rocket at the al-Baghdadi Israeli military post, achieving a “direct hit.”

Israeli warplanes had overnight targeted the outskirts of Naqoura as well as the nearby al-Labbouneh mountain.

Hezbollah has targeted Israeli positions across the border almost daily since an October 7 attack by its Palestinian ally Hamas triggered war with Israel. Israeli forces have responded with strikes against Hezbollah positions as well as targeted operations against senior officials.

The border clashes since October have killed at least 303 people in Lebanon, mostly Hezbollah fighters but including 50 civilians. On the Israeli side, 10 soldiers and seven civilians have been killed according to the Israeli army.
