Overview
- The Israeli military said it struck Hezbollah targets in eastern, northern and southern Lebanon, including a Bekaa training camp, a precision‑missile production site and a weapons depot in Nabatieh.
- Israel said a drone strike near Toul in the Nabatieh district killed Abbas Hassan Karky, identified by Lebanese media as Hezbollah’s southern‑front logistics commander, though the group had not confirmed his death.
- Lebanon’s Health Ministry reported at least four people killed on Thursday in the Bekaa and Arabsalim, and officials said two more were killed near Nabatieh on Friday.
- Local reports said air raids damaged a school in the Bekaa and injured students, and Lebanese authorities condemned the attacks as violations of the November 2024 truce.
- The escalation came as US Maj Gen Joseph Clearfield, newly leading ceasefire monitoring, met Lebanese leaders in Beirut, with US pressure mounting on Lebanon to disarm Hezbollah.
