The Lebanese Ministry of Health stated that two person were killed and eight others wounded. One of them was identified as Ali Nazmi Sabra, a senior operative in the pro-Iranian formation.
Earlier, the Israeli army announced that it would continue its offensive policy against Hezbollah.
Starting at 11:15 AM on Thursday, Israeli warplanes launched a large-scale airstrike on the Nabatiyeh area, carrying out a series of heavy bombings in two waves. The targets included valleys, hills, and forests stretching across the towns of Kfar Tibnit, Nabatiyeh el-Fawqa, and Kfar Rumman.
The explosions from the missiles caused massive blasts, the echoes of which were heard across much of the Nabatiyeh region and southern Lebanon. The attacks created widespread panic, with many residents rushing to schools to evacuate their children.
According to an Israeli military source quoted by Israeli media, before Adraee’s statement, an “important target” was struck in this part of southern Lebanon. However, authorities did not specify the exact nature of the target.
