ALBAWABA- Israeli warplanes launched a new wave of air strikes on southern Lebanon, targeting several locations in a fresh escalation that further undermines the fragile ceasefire agreement with Hezbollah reached in November.
The latest Israeli raids struck the areas of Mahmoudiya, Zaghrin, the outskirts of Sajd, Ansar, and Zarariya, with additional air strikes reported on the Reyhan Heights and the heights of the Tuffah region, according to circulating footage and local sources.
These attacks mark a continuation of Israel’s cross-border operations in violation of the ceasefire deal, intensifying concerns over a broader regional conflict.
While Israel has not formally commented on the raids, the strikes come amid ongoing tensions and retaliatory exchanges along the Lebanon-Israel border.
Meanwhile, on the domestic front, the Lebanese Army Command announced the arrest of three Lebanese citizens during a series of security operations carried out by the Intelligence Directorate.
The detainees were allegedly part of a terrorist cell affiliated with the Daesh (ISIS) organization.
"Preliminary investigations revealed that the cell was planning to carry out attacks against the army under the direction of external Daesh leaders," the army statement read.
It confirmed that follow-up efforts are ongoing to apprehend additional members linked to the group.
