Israeli aircraft bomb the Wadi al-Hujair valley in southern Lebanon
The National News Agency logged machine-gun fire, artillery and drone ordnance across the Nabatieh, Marjayoun and Bint Jbeil districts on the same day, seven weeks after a ceasefire framework was signed.
Lebanon's National News Agency said Israeli aircraft bombed the Wadi al-Hujair valley, near the southern Lebanese town of al-Qantara, shortly after midnight on Monday. The agency recorded no injuries and no damage to property from the strike.
The valley crosses the districts of Nabatieh, Marjayoun and Bint Jbeil, and the strike was one of several incidents the agency logged across those same districts in the hours around it.
In Khiam, in Marjayoun district, the agency reported fire from medium and heavy machine guns aimed at the town, and Israeli military vehicles moving to the east of it. Machine-gun fire was also directed at Haddatha, in Bint Jbeil district.
Earlier the same day, a drone dropped explosive ordnance on al-Dabsha, east of Nabatieh al-Fawqa. Artillery shelled Zawtar al-Sharqiyah, an airstrike hit Mansouri, and a drone came down on the outskirts of Zibqin.
A US-backed ceasefire framework was signed by Lebanon and Israel on 26 June. It sets out a gradual Israeli withdrawal from occupied Lebanese ground, the deployment of the Lebanese army into the areas vacated, and the disarmament of armed groups.
Israeli forces remain in several areas of southern Lebanon, some held for decades and others taken during the fighting of 2023 and 2024, when they pushed more than 10 kilometres into Lebanese territory. Seven weeks on from the signing, violations of the truce are being reported on an almost daily basis.
