- Two Killed in Israeli Strike in Western Bekaa
After a few hours of relative calm in the Southern border area, an Israeli drone targeted a car at the junction of the town of Al-Khayara in Western Bekaa on Saturday, resulting in two fatalities.
The Islamic group, Al Jamaa Al Islamiya, announced later Saturday that one of its leading commanders, Ayman al-Ghatmeh, and his bodyguard were killed in the Israeli strike in the Western Bekaa.
An Israeli raid also targeted on Saturday evening a grove in the city of Saida, in one of the deepest attacks into Lebanese territory, without causing casualties.
A series of raids were also carried out by warplanes on Ramya, Khallet Warda, Aita al-Shaab, and Yaroun, and phosphorous bombs were unleashed on Wadi Slouki and the outskirts of Houla.
Earlier in the morning, Israeli artillery shelled the town of Khiam and Izziyeh Hill between Deir Mimas and Kfar Kila.
For its part, Hezbollah announced that it had targeted a building used by the Israeli army in the settlement of Manara "with appropriate weapons and hit it directly."
Israeli army radio also reported that "two anti-tank missiles were fired from Lebanon towards the settlement of Manara" in Upper Galilee.
