Three civilians were killed in an Israeli strike on a residential building in the south Lebanon city of Nabatiyeh this evening, a Lebanese security source says.

“Three civilians dead in the Israeli strike, including two women,” a security source tells AFP, requesting anonymity as they are not authorized to speak to the media.

There is no immediate comment from the IDF on the strikes, which came after a rocket attack on Safed killed one and wounded several others.
