Israeli forces on Saturday launched airstrikes and artillery fire across southern Lebanon, targeting areas around Tyre and Nabatieh, Lebanese media reported.
A dawn strike on the Maarka–Tyre industrial zone killed five people, including two women, and injured two others, while a separate raid on a home in Ain Baal killed two family members and left another injured, with a woman reported missing. In Qana, two people were injured, one critically.
Air raids also hit al-Hamadiyeh east of Tyre and a building at the Maarka junction, while a previously warned site in al-Burj al-Shamali was leveled. Additional strikes targeted Burj Qalaouiyeh, Kfartebnit, and areas near Shouqine.
