Lebanese media reports a series of alleged Israeli airstrikes near the town of Ain al-Tineh, in the Western Beqaa District.

Footage posted to social media shows several plumes of smoke rising from a mountain near the town.

Ain al-Tineh is around 22 kilometers (14 miles) from the Israeli border, north of the Litani River and somewhat deeper into Lebanon than most strikes the IDF carries out.
