Israel strikes Lebanon amid ceasefire

Israel has carried out a series of airstrikes, targeting several areas in southern and eastern Lebanon. The Lebanese National News Agency (NNA) reports said Israeli warplanes launched multiple raids on the heights of the eastern Mountain Range and an area in the Baalbek district of eastern Lebanon. Israel also launched several airstrikes on targets in southern Lebanon at around 10:35 p.m. local time yesterday.

 

Before the airstrikes, Israeli aircraft conducted intensive low-altitude flights over the town of Rashaya and western Bekaa, while flying at higher altitudes over the city of Hermel and northern Bekaa in eastern Lebanon. The NNA report added that Israeli jets were also seen over Beirut and its suburbs. The developments come despite the ongoing ceasefire agreement between the Lebanese armed group Hezbollah and the Israeli military, which took effect on November 27, 2024, and was meant to end more than a year of cross-border clashes triggered by the war in Gaza.
