Nov 09, 2025
Cairo [Egypt], November 9: Three people were killed and 11 others injured on Saturday in Israeli airstrikes in different parts of Lebanon, Lebanese authorities said. The strikes come amid a rise in attacks that Israel says are targeting the Iran-allied Lebanese Hezbollah group.
In one attack, an Israeli drone struck a vehicle on a road in south-eastern Lebanon, killing two people, the Lebanese Ministry of Health said.
The dead were brothers and their vehicle went up in flames as a result of the strike, the Lebanese state news agency NNA reported.
Elsewhere in Lebanon, a man was killed and four others injured after an Israeli drone hit a vehicle in the southern town of Barachit, the ministry added.
Earlier on Saturday, an Israeli drone targeted another vehicle near a hospital in the southern town of Bint Jbeil, injuring seven, the ministry said.
Tensions between Israel and Hezbollah have recently escalated, despite a fragile ceasefire.
Israel, with US backing, is pressing for the full disarmament of Hezbollah.
