Israeli strikes on three south Lebanon villages killed nine people, among them two children and five women, Lebanon’s health ministry says, nearly two weeks into a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah.
“Israeli enemy strikes on south Lebanon led, in an initial toll, to nine martyrs, among them two children and five women, and 23 wounded, among them eight children and seven women,” the ministry says in a statement issued shortly after Lebanon’s president slammed “continuing Israeli violations” of the ceasefire.
