Israeli forces carried out new airstrikes in Lebanon, killing at least 20 people and injuring many others, according to the Lebanese Health Ministry and state media. The attacks occurred on Saturday, May 24, 2026, targeting several areas including Al-Bakbuk near Tyre, where five people were killed and two injured. Rescue teams recovered four bodies, but one woman remained trapped under debris as continued strikes hindered rescue operations.
In Nabatieh district’s Sier al-Gharbiya city, a separate strike on a residential building killed nine and injured six. Additional attacks were reported in Rachaya al-Wadi’s Al-Rafid, where one person died and another was injured, and in Al-Shahabiya, where several casualties occurred. A drone strike in Al-Housh near Tyre killed one person, while overnight attacks in Deir Kanoun al-Nahr destroyed a house and killed four more.
The Lebanese National News Agency reported that Israeli bombardments were ongoing, complicating rescue efforts across the affected regions.
