Israeli strikes in Lebanon kill 10 people, including three Lebanese army members

At least 10 people, including three members of the Lebanese army, have been killed in continued Israeli strikes on Lebanon despite a truce in effect since April 17.

An Israeli air strike occurred on a military vehicle on the Kfartebnit-Khardali road in Nabatieh, southern Lebanon, on Saturday, killing two Lebanese army officers, holding the ranks of brigadier and captain, as well as a soldier, the Lebanese army said through X.

Lebanese President Joseph Aoun condemned the attack “in the strongest terms,” the Lebanese Presidency also noted in a statement on X.

Aoun considered the attack “a flagrant violation of Lebanese sovereignty,” calling on the international community to “put an end to these repeated attacks,” according to the statement.

The Israeli army also admitted it launched the strike, claiming that “the vehicle was travelling through an active combat zone that had been evacuated.”
