Israeli strikes in southern Lebanon kill at least 11 after clash with Hezbollah
Air raids in southern Lebanon left at least 11 dead on Saturday after Israel said its forces were targeted and Hezbollah warned of retaliation.
Israeli airstrikes hit southern Lebanon on Saturday, killing at least 11 people after the Israeli military said its troops in the south had come under attack. The strikes were among the deadliest since June arrangements eased fighting between Israel and Hezbollah.
Israel said the operation was carried out in response to the earlier attack on its forces. Hezbollah, the Iran-backed militant group based in Lebanon, said the strikes would be answered and warned that they would be met with what they deserve.
The latest exchange adds to a fragile period along the Israel-Lebanon frontier, where cross-border fire has repeatedly raised fears of wider conflict. The June deals had reduced hostilities, but Saturday's deaths showed how quickly the situation can escalate again.
