Israeli Forces Strike Towns Across Southern Lebanon

The Israeli military launched air and artillery strikes on 15 towns and districts across southern Lebanon over the past day. A Lebanese military field source gave the details.

”During November 8, Israeli aircraft struck the towns of Mansouri and Kfar Tibnit, the outskirts of Tallusa and Barashit, and an area between Aita al Jabal and Houdaytha,” the source said.

Artillery Fire Reaches Villages, Forests and Valleys

Artillery shells also hit the outskirts of Meifadoun, Zawtar al Sharqiya and Nabatieh al Fawqa. Mansouri and Kfar Tibnit took further artillery fire as well.

Gunners targeted the Aita al Jabal forest too. The valleys of Wadi Zibqin, Wadi al Hujeir and Wadi al Sluqi came under fire. Shelling spread across the Khiam plain.

The source added that Israeli troops carried out explosions in the Aita al Jabal, Qantara and Kfar Tibnit areas.

A Ceasefire Deal That Keeps Getting Tested

Lebanon and Israel reached a framework agreement on June 26, brokered by the United States. Still, Israeli strikes on southern Lebanon continue almost daily, both from the air and by artillery.

The deal, signed in Washington, calls for a phased Israeli troop withdrawal from Lebanese territory. It also calls for Lebanese army units to deploy along the border zone. Armed groups outside state control, including Hezbollah, are meant to disarm under the terms of the pact.

Despite the agreement, towns across southern Lebanon keep coming under fire, and residents near the border continue to live with near constant military activity.
