Israeli strikes reported in Lebanese village 40 kilometers from border

Israeli airstrikes on southern Lebanon hit the outskirts of Kouthariyeh al-Siyad village, about 40 kilometers (25 miles) from the border, Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency says, adding that there are casualties.

Such strikes deeper inside Lebanon have been rare since the border fighting started nearly three months ago.

NNA also says Israeli forces shelled border areas, including the town of Khiam. Israel’s army has no immediate comment.
