Lebanon’s state news agency, the National News Agency (NNA), reported that an air strike destroyed a house in the town of Ansar on Saturday morning, killing seven people and injuring three others. Rescue teams are removing debris and evacuating the dead and injured to hospitals.<\/p>\n
Valleys near the site were also hit; it was the first time the area had been attacked since an Israeli-Lebanese ceasefire was agreed two months ago.<\/p>\n
Israeli warplanes also targeted a teachers’ college and a religious building in Nabatieh al-Fawqa, located about 10 miles east of Ansar, with reports of continued attacks in the surrounding area.<\/p>\n
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) said it attacked Hezbollah infrastructure after the Iranian-backed militant group carried out “an act” against Israeli soldiers along the Ali al-Taher ridge in southern Lebanon. <\/p>\n
The IDF did not provide details on what action Hezbollah took.<\/p>\n
“We will continue to operate to eliminate the threat,” the IDF said in a statement.<\/p>\n
