- Southern Border: Intense Israeli Attacks, Lebanese Soldier Injured
Tensions continued in southern Lebanon on Friday as Israel strengthened its offensives.
Israeli warplanes launched a series of raids with heavy missiles on Jabal al-Labbouneh, the outskirts of Naqoura. Israeli artillery shelling also targeted the town of Jebbayn.
Additionally, Israeli drones targeted the towns of Aita al-Shaab and Kfar Kila.
On their part, Hezbollah announced that it had targeted the Rweissat al-Alam site as well as a radar site in the occupied Lebanese Shebaa Farms.
Since the early morning hours Friday, the border area in southern Lebanon witnessed a series of Israeli attacks, that first targeted the town of Al-Wazzani with heavy machine gun fire and artillery shells, injuring a Lebanese army soldier and damaging homes and livestock farms.
The Israeli army also attacked the outskirts of the town of Blida, which had not yet recovered from the aftermath of the drone attack that hit the building housing civil defense personnel of the Hezbollah-affiliated Islamic Health Authority, killing three people, including two paramedics and one Hezbollah fighter.
Removal of the rubble from the building, which was flattened by the strike, was completed at mid-day Friday.
The pine forests between the farms of Helta, Kfarchouba and Kfarhamam, in the outskirts of Hebbariyeh, came under intense artillery shelling from Israeli positions inside the Shebaa Farms.
Reports also indicated the explosion of an Israeli interception missile in the skies of the town of Mays al-Jabal.
In retaliation, Hezbollah claimed two attacks, one with a drone on the headquarters of the Regional Council in Kiryat Shmona, and a missile strike on the Ma'aleh Golan barracks in Sahlia.
The Iran-backed party also announced the death of its three members, two from Blida and one from Baraachit.
