ALBAWABA - According to Lebanese Ministry of Health reports, two people have been killed in an Israeli airstrike on the Lebanese town of Houla.
Lebanon's health ministry said that two people were killed in a "Israeli enemy strike" on the border of the village of Houla, but did not clarify whether they were fighters or civilians.
Lebanon's official National News Agency reported Israeli bombardment and attacks on many southern locations, claiming that "enemy drone strikes" killed two people.
This airstrike comes as Hezbollah said Monday that it attacked troops and military sites in northern Israel, including a drone strike on a base and an assault on soldiers who were purportedly "infiltrating" near the Lebanese border.
Since October 7, Hezbollah has been exchanging cross-border fire with the Israeli army in support of partner Hamas.
Fears of a major escalation rose when an Israeli raid last month on Beirut's southern suburbs killed Fuad Shukr, one of Hezbollah's senior commanders, only hours before an Israeli-claimed attack in Tehran killed Hamas' political leader Ismail Haniyeh.
Al-Aqsa Flood operation against Israel
Hamas military group announced on Oct. 7 a military operation called "Al-Aqsa Flood" against Israel which is the biggest offensive in decades.
Palestinian fighters “infiltrated” Israel from the Gaza Strip and captured military bases and took hostages as photos and videos went viral online showing Hamas fighters on vehicles inside Israel and others paragliding into occupation territory.
In response, Israeli armed forces announced targeting Hamas positions inside the Gaza Strip. Thousands were killed, and dozens of thousands of others were injured in the Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip.
