The clashes in South Lebanon escalated on Saturday afternoon after Hezbollah reactivated the support front following a 48-hour pause imposed by the assassination of commander Fouad Shokr in an Israeli strike in the southern suburbs of Beirut.
According to a statement by the Ministry of Health, an Israeli drone targeted the town of Deir Seryan on Saturday evening, resulting in the death of a 17-year-old boy and injuring six civilians.
Two Israeli raids targeted the town of Tayr Harfa, injuring one person. Meanwhile, two other raids targeted the areas of Aita al-Shaab and al-Marj in the southern outskirts of Hula.
In the same context, the Israeli army declared that it had bombed infrastructure and military sites belonging to Hezbollah in Tayr Harfa and Kfar Kila.
The Israelis fired an incendiary shell on the outskirts of Chihine, causing a fire. Additionally, they bombarded the areas near Alma al-Shaab and Naqoura, as well as the mountains of Labbouneh and al-Alam.
Finally, Israeli warplanes broke the sound barrier twice over Chouf and Aley.
In response, Hezbollah announced that it had targeted the al-Aasi and Hadab Yaroun sites with artillery shells, also stating that “in response to the aggression against the resistant villages of the South and civilian homes, especially in the town of Aita al-Shaab, Hezbollah targeted a building used by Israeli soldiers in the settlement of Metula with gunfire.”
In retaliation for the aggression against Kfar Kila, Hezbollah fired on buildings used by Israeli soldiers in the Avivim settlement.
It also struck buildings in Shlomi and the sites of Roueissat al-Alam and Samaqa in the Kfarchouba hills.
Furthermore, Israeli Channel 12 reported that two rockets fired from Lebanon fell in open areas in Baram, in the northern Galilee.
Earlier on Saturday, the Israeli army stated that it had targeted two Hezbollah members inside a military installation in Blida.
An Israeli drone also targeted a car on a road between Wadi Jilo and Bazourieh, resulting in one death and two injuries. Another drone struck the town of Rab Thalathin, but no casualties were reported.
Hezbollah subsequently announced that one of its fighters, identified as Ali Abdel Ali, was killed in the attack on the car.
