At least four people were killed in separate Israeli attacks in southern Lebanon, according to the state-run National News Agency. The report said that an airstrike targeted the Yassin Poultry Farm in the city of Adshit, killing the farm owner, Imad Ahmad Yassin. In another incident, a 16-year-old boy named Osama Hasan al-Khaled was killed by a drone strike in front of his home in the al-Sharifa area of Habboush city.

Additionally, two more people were killed early in the morning in another drone attack in the al-Marj area of Kafr Rumman city. Around the same time, airstrikes were carried out between Nabatieh, Kafr Sir, and Sir al-Gharbiya, while artillery shelling was reported in Jebchit city. Border areas near Mansouri and Majdal Zoun were also targeted by Israeli fire.

The report, citing Al Jazeera, did not provide further details about the victims or the extent of the damage caused by the attacks.

Hezbollah has rejected a US-mediated ceasefire agreement between the governments of Lebanon and Israel, calling the proposal unreasonable and offensive. The group dismissed the deal after it required only Hezbollah to halt attacks while Israeli bombardment and incursions in southern Lebanon continued. The rejection follows the announcement of a renewed truce and a broader peace framework in Washington.

Since the start of the so-called 'Ramadan War' in March 2026, Hezbollah has relied on drones and small specialized units to sustain a long, attritional conflict against Israel. Compared with its 2024 forces, the group has significantly restructured its command, battlefield readiness, and operational flexibility. Its new leadership has decentralized decision-making, empowering mid-level commanders and emphasizing quality over quantity in combat units.

Hezbollah’s evolving strategy now prioritizes inflicting continuous losses on Israel rather than holding territory at all costs. However, Lebanon’s fragile internal situation—including economic collapse, refugee pressures, and political tensions—poses a greater long-term threat to Hezbollah’s endurance than the battlefield itself.

At least seven people were killed in an Israeli attack on Jefta, a city in Lebanon’s Nabatieh Governorate, according to the Lebanese health ministry. The victims include a Syrian child and a woman. The strike occurred early in the morning, leaving at least eight others injured. The wounded are being treated at local hospitals, and panic spread across the area following the assault. Israeli authorities have not issued any immediate comment on the incident.

The attack comes amid rising tensions in southern Lebanon in recent times. Local authorities are monitoring the situation closely as the region experiences heightened instability. The report was sourced from Al Jazeera, as cited by the Lebanese outlet.

Further developments or official responses from either side were not available at the time of reporting.

Lebanon’s Health Ministry reported that the death toll from Israeli attacks has risen to 3,637 since the assaults began on March 2. The ministry’s latest figures, released on Monday, also confirmed that at least 11,188 people have been injured, with many in critical condition. Officials warned that the number of fatalities could increase further as the situation remains volatile.

The prolonged conflict has triggered a severe humanitarian crisis across several regions of Lebanon. Thousands of residents have been displaced, and the country’s healthcare and emergency response systems are under mounting strain. Despite repeated international appeals to end the violence, tensions along the border remain high.

According to the Health Ministry, both casualties and injuries have continued to rise steadily since the start of the conflict, underscoring the ongoing intensity of the hostilities.

Hezbollah has claimed responsibility for launching a rocket barrage targeting a gathering of Israeli soldiers and military vehicles stationed in southern Lebanon. The group said in a statement on Telegram on Monday morning that the attack was directed at Israeli forces near the outskirts of Beit Yahoun. According to Hezbollah, the strike was carried out in response to Israeli attacks on villages in southern Lebanon and alleged violations of a ceasefire.

Israel has not yet commented on the incident, and there were no immediate reports of casualties or damage. Meanwhile, the Israeli military continues ground operations in southern Lebanon, which it says are aimed at preventing Hezbollah rocket attacks toward northern Israel.

The report noted that tensions along the Lebanon-Israel border have remained high in recent weeks, raising concerns that the conflict could escalate further.

Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam has accused Israel of carrying out nearly 3,500 attacks in Lebanon despite a ceasefire announced by the United States. According to a statement from the Prime Minister’s Office posted on social media platform X after a cabinet meeting, between April 17 and June 7, Israel conducted 3,491 airstrikes, 407 planned demolition operations, and six 'raging operations'. The statement added that several villages in southern Lebanon near the border were completely destroyed.

Salam said Lebanon is trying to maintain the ceasefire, but recent Iran-Israel tensions have triggered a new wave of displacement, putting immense pressure on the country. He noted that the capacity to shelter displaced people in Beirut, Saida, and other regions is nearly exhausted, making it increasingly difficult to accommodate new arrivals.

Since the war began on March 2, more than one million people have been displaced due to Israeli attacks and forced evacuations, representing about one-fifth of Lebanon’s total population, according to the report cited from Al Jazeera.

Journalist Abed Abu Shehadeh has said that Israel is stuck in a major quagmire in Lebanon, with no clear strategy to exit the ongoing conflict. Speaking to Al Jazeera from Jaffa, he argued that describing Israel’s recent actions as a ceasefire is misleading, as Israeli media themselves refer to it as a 'ceasefire war.'

According to Abu Shehadeh, Israeli forces have faced increasing pressure in recent weeks as Hezbollah’s new fiber-based drones have repeatedly targeted and killed Israeli soldiers. He added that the Israeli military currently lacks an effective response to this drone technology, leaving its forces vulnerable on the ground.

The report underscores the growing challenges Israel faces in Lebanon, where intensified drone attacks have complicated its military operations and strategic planning.

At least 12 people, including senior Lebanese army officers, were killed in Israeli strikes across southern Lebanon on Saturday, according to the Lebanese army. The military reported that a brigadier general, a captain, and a soldier died when an Israeli attack targeted a military vehicle on the Khardali-Nabatieh road.

The Israeli army described the incident as occurring in an “active combat zone,” asserting that coordination with Israeli forces was required for movement in the area. It said the attack was under investigation. The Lebanese army condemned the strikes as deliberate and repeated acts of aggression aimed at undermining efforts toward a resolution.

Lebanese President Joseph Aoun called the assault a severe violation of Lebanon’s sovereignty and international law, while Prime Minister Nawaf Salam denounced it as a heinous crime against the nation and its people. He extended condolences to the families and colleagues of the slain officers Brigadier General Wassam Sabra, Captain Elie Khoury, and soldier Hussein Ghazal.

At least 12 people, including high-ranking Lebanese army officers, were killed in Israeli attacks across southern Lebanon on Saturday, days after both countries agreed to a conditional ceasefire mediated by the United States. Lebanon’s army confirmed that Brigadier General Wassam Sabra, Captain Elie Khoury, and soldier Hussein Ghozal died when an Israeli strike hit a military vehicle on the Khardali-Nabatieh road. Israel described the area as an active combat zone and said the incident was under investigation.

Lebanese President Joseph Aoun and Prime Minister Nawaf Salam condemned the attack as a violation of sovereignty and international law. Hezbollah and Iran’s Foreign Ministry also denounced the strikes, while Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Qatar issued statements rejecting Israel’s actions and calling for respect of Lebanon’s sovereignty. The UN peacekeeping mission in southern Lebanon said the attacks breached Security Council Resolution 1701, which underpins the current truce.

The violence comes amid ongoing clashes between Israel and Hezbollah despite multiple ceasefire attempts. Lebanon’s army, which has largely stayed out of the conflict, faces growing pressure as Israeli forces intensify operations and renew displacement orders in southern villages.

Days after a new ceasefire agreement, Israeli airstrikes in southern Lebanon killed at least nine people, including three Lebanese soldiers. The Lebanese army confirmed that a brigadier general, a captain, and another soldier died when their vehicle was hit between Nabatieh and Marjayoun. Another strike in Saksakiyeh village killed six civilians and injured four others, according to Lebanon’s National News Agency.

The Lebanese army condemned the attacks as deliberate aggression undermining efforts to restore stability and achieve a full ceasefire. It accused Israel of trying to obstruct peace and the withdrawal of its forces from occupied Lebanese territory. Israel’s military confirmed targeting a vehicle, claiming it was acting on intelligence that Hezbollah fighters were preparing an attack near Kfar Tibnit, and insisted its operations were directed at Hezbollah, not the Lebanese army.

Lebanese President Joseph Aoun denounced the strikes as a violation of sovereignty and international law. The incident comes amid U.S.-mediated talks and rising tensions involving Iran, Hezbollah, and Israel following months of cross-border conflict.

At least 21 people were killed in Israeli airstrikes on southern Lebanon, according to the state-run National News Agency (NNA). The report said the dead included a municipal councilor from Sidon, two Syrian children riding a motorcycle with their father in Nabatieh, and a paramedic in Zebdine. The NNA added that an ambulance was targeted in Zebdine while attempting to deliver bread to a family described as being under blockade.

Lebanon’s Ministry of Health condemned the attack in a statement, saying that targeting paramedics during rescue operations constitutes a violation of international humanitarian law. The ministry’s remarks followed reports that the ambulance strike occurred during a humanitarian mission.

The incident underscores the growing civilian toll in southern Lebanon amid ongoing cross-border hostilities, with Lebanese authorities calling attention to the protection of medical and rescue personnel in conflict zones.

The Israeli military has claimed responsibility for killing Abd Harb, a commander of Hezbollah’s engineering unit, in an operation in southern Lebanon. The announcement was made through a post on social media platform X, where the Israeli army stated that Harb had been involved in preparing and activating explosives used in attacks against Israeli forces. Hezbollah has not yet confirmed his death.

According to the Israeli military statement, Harb was described as a senior Hezbollah commander who had participated in attacks against Israeli forces since the 2006 Lebanon war. The army also reported that its air force destroyed a launcher overnight, which it alleged Hezbollah fighters had used to fire rockets toward Israeli positions in southern Lebanon.

The report, citing Al Jazeera as its source, did not include any confirmation or response from Hezbollah, leaving uncertainty about the claimed killing and the broader situation on the ground.

The Israeli military has reported that 63 additional soldiers were injured in southern Lebanon over the past four days. According to the military’s data, since March 2 a total of 27 Israeli soldiers have been killed and 1,243 injured in the ongoing operations. The clashes continue despite recent diplomatic efforts to halt the fighting.

Hezbollah, the Iran-backed armed group, has rejected a ceasefire proposal that had been agreed upon between Lebanon and Israel under U.S. mediation. The group’s leader, Naim Qassem, announced the rejection, while Israel has also refused to withdraw its forces from Lebanon. The situation has complicated U.S. President Donald Trump’s initiative to end hostilities and promote peace with Tehran.

Iran has made a ceasefire in Lebanon a precondition for any agreement with Washington and warned that continued Israeli attacks could draw it directly into the conflict. Israel’s Defense Minister Israel Katz stated that Israeli forces will not retreat or halt operations in southern Lebanon.

An Israeli soldier was killed in a Hezbollah anti-tank missile attack in southern Lebanon on Thursday afternoon. The victim, Captain Eitan Shmuel Lemberg, was from Mishmar Hashiva and served in the 75th Battalion of the 7th Armored Brigade. The strike targeted an Israeli tank positioned north of the Litani River.

Following the attack, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced that it had launched air and artillery strikes against Hezbollah infrastructure in the area. The incident occurred just one day after Jerusalem and Beirut had agreed to a ceasefire plan. Under that plan, Hezbollah was to halt attacks, and the Lebanese army would deploy in several test zones in southern Lebanon where neither Hezbollah fighters nor IDF troops would be present.

The timing of the attack raises questions about the durability of the newly agreed ceasefire arrangement between the two sides.

Hezbollah’s Deputy Secretary-General Naim Qassem warned that northern Israel would not remain safe if Israeli attacks on Lebanon persist. In a statement reported on June 4, 2026, he said that as long as Lebanese civilians and border villages face Israeli military strikes, the areas across the border in Israel will also be under threat.

Qassem rejected any attempt to link Hezbollah’s military presence to broader political negotiations. He stated that connecting the group’s deployment to issues such as ceasefire or Israeli troop withdrawal is unacceptable. According to him, Hezbollah will not accept any political pressure or conditional arrangements regarding its role or positioning.

The remarks came amid rising tensions along the Lebanon-Israel border, which have recently intensified. The report noted that Israel had not issued an immediate response to Qassem’s comments.
