Israel strikes Zebqine in south Lebanon, wounding one person

A man was wounded in an overnight Israeli strike on the southern town of Zebqine, the health ministry said Tuesday.

The strike comes as Israel intensified its attacks on Lebanon, despite a ceasefire reached in November 2024, a week after the Lebanese army said it had completed disarming Hezbollah south of the Litani River.

On Monday, the Israeli army conducted a series of strikes on at least five villages -- Ansar, Zarariyeh, Kfar Melki, Nahr al-Shita and Buslaya, all in south Lebanon north of the Litani river.

Later on Tuesday, Israeli soldiers entered the southern border towns of Kfarkela and Markaba and detonated three houses, two of them in Kfarkela near the village square.
