An Israeli drone targeted a motorcycle on Saturday in the town of Majdel Selm in the Marjayoun district, causing one death, according to local newspaper Annahar.
This comes after a heated night in the southern villages as Israeli aircraft launched a series of simultaneous raids, which were met by Hezbollah firing dozens of rockets towards Israeli positions.
The Israeli army announced that in response to Hezbollah’s rocket attacks towards northern Israel on Friday, air force warplanes struck significant Hezbollah assets in Ain Qana and in the villages of Humeila and Adloun.
The latest escalation coincided with Israeli media reports that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu instructed the army to expand the scope of strikes on Lebanon. Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah confirmed that the southern front is continuing its operations and is part of the battle “shaping the fate of Palestine, Lebanon and the region.”
On Saturday morning, sirens blared in the Yiftah and Hermon areas of the Upper Galilee on the border with Lebanon.
A rocket fell without causing injuries or damage in the vicinity of Yiftah and Hermon in the Upper Galilee, while intercepting rockets exploded over Mays al-Jabal, according to Channel 12 in Israel.
Hezbollah’s military media announced that the group targeted the Baghdadi site on Saturday morning.
