Six killed in Israeli strike in Lebanon
Israeli military said the airstrike targeted a weapons depot used by Hezbollah militants
Cairo: At least six people were killed and three wounded by an Israeli strike on a residential building in Nabatieh city in southern Lebanon, the Lebanese health ministry said early on Saturday.
The Israeli military said the airstrike targeted a weapons depot used by Hezbollah militants.
Tensions have soared in the region in recent weeks, after a rocket strike blamed on Hezbollah killed 12 children and teens in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights. Israel responded with the killing of a top Hezbollah commander in the suburbs of Beirut.
Hezbollah has vowed to retaliate against Israel, as has Iran for the killing in Tehran of the political chief of the Palestinian Hamas group, Ismail Haniyeh.
