One person was killed and seven others were injured, including four children, in an Israeli drone attack targeting a residential apartment in Al-Ahmadiya, West Bekaa, on Friday, according to the Ministry of Public Health Emergency Operations.

The Israeli army had previously stated “working intensively on the northern front (with Lebanon) during the last week and attacking more than 140 targets on Lebanese territory.”

Israeli artillery shelled Aita al-Shaab and Kfarchouba, while flares were launched at the Labbouneh forests. Israeli fire also targeted the outskirts of Tayr Harfa, Al-Jebbayn, and Majdal Zoun, during intense low-altitude surveillance flights above Tyre.

Additionally, the Israeli army declared “intercepting projectiles fired from Lebanon towards Maskaf Aam.” Israel also announced that “20 rockets were fired from Lebanon at the city of Safad.”

For its part, Hezbollah claimed responsibility for “launching an aerial drone attack at Filon base (headquarters of the 210th division) and achieving direct hits.”

In another statement, the pro-Iranian group announced raiding “a military force at Birkat Risha with appropriate weapons and achieving direct hits.”

On Friday morning, Israeli warplanes carried out airstrikes targeting various locations in Bint Jbeil, the outskirts of Alma al-Shaab, Dhayra and al-Salhani.
