Incendiary and phosphorus shells struck the town of Yohmor for the first time on Friday, heading towards Qalaat Chaqif in South Lebanon. These bombs landed between houses in the area, injuring several civilians. The strikes also caused material damage and shattered the windows of many houses in various neighborhoods.
Additional phosphorus bombings targeted the vicinity of the Lebanese army barracks in Nabatiyeh al-Faouqa, severely damaging a house but causing no injuries. The outskirts of Kfar Tibnit, a village about four kilometers southeast of Nabatiyeh, were also bombed with phosphorus. This led to fires in the forests of Ali al-Tahir, around the army barracks, and in the wheat fields in the Deir neighborhood. Civil Defense teams from the pro-Hezbollah Islamic Health Mission were dispatched to the sites and managed to extinguish the flames. Cases of panic and tension among the population were also reported. Scout teams from Imam al-Mahdi, who were camping in the same area, reported no casualties when shells fell nearby.
Continued Operations
On Friday evening, Israeli artillery bombed Ain al-Zarqa, the surroundings of Alma al-Shaab, Taybeh, and Naqoura. Earlier, Israeli warplanes conducted an airstrike on the heights of Ksarat al-Arouch in the Iqlim al-Tuffah area. The Israeli army also carried out a raid on Jabal al-Rafi'a in Jabal al-Rayhan in the Jezzine region, targeting the locality of Balat in the Marjayoun district. Israeli warplanes also attacked the outskirts of the town of Tayr Harfa, causing significant damage to houses and infrastructure. In the vicinity of the village of Markaba, subjected to Israeli air attacks on Friday morning, a rescuer was injured as the Israeli bombardments continued against South Lebanon's border areas.
Naim Kassem: No "Expansion" of War in Lebanon "In the Short Term"
The deputy leader of Hezbollah, Naim Kassem, stated on Friday that there "will not be an expansion of the war in Lebanon in the near future." In an interview with the Russian media Sputnik, he said that "it is not currently on the agenda in the short term, but Hezbollah is prepared for the worst-case scenario," according to the Lebanese news agencies Al-Markazia and the National News Agency.
Hezbollah claimed in a series of statements that it had targeted several Israeli positions, including Samaqa, Ramtha in the Kfarchouba hills, and the Shlomi settlement.
The pro-Iranian party also fired artillery shells at the Israeli site of Ramya, located opposite the Lebanese village of Ramyeh in the Bint Jbeil district. Meanwhile, the Israeli army announced "strikes on Hezbollah positions in southern Lebanon."
There was no breaking of the sound barrier in Lebanese airspace on Friday, according to the An-Nahar newspaper.
