Israel has intensified its strikes on southern and eastern Lebanon in recent days, saying it has struck targets from both the Iran-backed Lebanese militant group and its Palestinian ally Hamas.
Lebanon’s health ministry said Tuesday’s strike on south Lebanon’s Kfar Dunin killed two people.
The Israeli military said in a statement that it struck two Hezbollah operatives in the area, accusing one of being “an engineering terrorist in a structure that facilitated the organisation’s reestablishment efforts”.
Despite a November 2024 ceasefire that sought to end more than a year of hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah, Israel’s army has carried out frequent strikes on Lebanon, usually saying it is bombing sites and operatives belonging to the militant group, and occasionally Hamas.
