BEIRUT, Lebanon — Lebanon says Israeli strikes killed two people today.
Lebanon’s health ministry says that “an Israeli enemy strike on an excavator in the town of Sohmor” in the eastern Bekaa Valley region killed one person.
A separate “Israeli enemy strike on a water tanker in Nabatiyeh al-Fawqa,” in south Lebanon, also killed one person, the ministry says, adding that another was wounded in a strike in south Lebanon’s Aitaroun.
The ministry does not say if those killed were civilians or combatants.
Israel has kept up attacks on Lebanon, saying it is targeting Hezbollah operatives or sites violating the truce that ended more than a year of war with the Iran-backed terror group.
It has also kept troops in five areas of south Lebanon that it deems strategic.
