Six people, including a child and a woman, were killed, and eight others were wounded. Additionally, another child and a woman were also injured in the town of Habbouch in Nabatieh district, the ministry said.
Another person was killed in an Israeli air strike targeting the town of Borj Qalaouiye in the Bint Jbeil district.
In response to Hezbollah’s retaliation to the Iran war, Israel has waged an offensive in Lebanon since March 2, killing more than 2,600 people, and displacing over 1 million.
A 10-day ceasefire that began on April 17 was later extended until May 17, but Israel continues to violate it daily through air strikes and the demolition of homes.
It also maintains a so-called “buffer zone” in southern Lebanon, saying it is meant to prevent attacks from Hezbollah. An earlier truce was reached in November 2024.
