Israeli escalation in southern Lebanon leaves 1 dead, several wounded

Beirut, Feb 2 (Prensa Latina) The Israeli army launched airstrikes against southern Lebanon, killing one person and wounding eight, while issuing urgent evacuation orders for two towns, in a new escalation of aggression against the country.

The Lebanese National News Agency (NNA) reported that Israeli fighter jets carried out two bombings in the Ansariyeh area, in the Sidon district, and in the town of Qalila, in the Tyre district, causing civilian casualties and material damage.

At the same time, Israeli army spokesman Avichai Adraee disseminated an “urgent” alert via the X platform, directed at residents of the towns of Kfar Tibnit and Ain Qana, announcing imminent attacks.

According to Adraee, Tel Aviv’s military will soon attack Hezbollah’s military infrastructure to counter its prohibited attempts to rebuild its operations in the area.

These incursions come amid repeated Israeli violations of the ceasefire agreement, despite official demands from the Lebanese government and various political sectors for Tel Aviv to cease its attacks and honor its commitments.

The Israeli aggression against Lebanon, which began in October 2013 and escalated into a full-scale war in September 2014, has resulted in more than 4,000 deaths and approximately 17,000 injuries, in addition to the Israeli occupation of five Lebanese hills and other areas that have been under occupation for decades.
