Israeli military targeted a three-story building north of the city of Nabatieh in southern Lebanon late Friday night, injuring 13 people, according to Lebanese military sources.

The military sources said that the Israeli army carried out seven airstrikes on five villages and towns and shelled seven villages and towns with about 35 shells in southern Lebanon on Saturday.

In response to the attacks, Hezbollah attacked several Israeli military headquarters and sites with drones and missiles.

Lebanese military sources said that army positions have monitored the launch of approximately 70 Katyusha rockets and several drones from Lebanon toward northern Israel.

Tensions along the Lebanon-Israel border escalated on Oct. 8, 2023, following a barrage of rockets launched by the Lebanese armed group Hezbollah toward Israel in solidarity with Hamas’ attack on Israel the day before. Israel then retaliated by firing heavy artillery toward southeastern Lebanon.
