At least 11 people were killed in an Israeli military attack in southern Lebanon in the early hours of the 15th, local time.

According to foreign media, the Israeli airstrike resulted in 11 deaths, including children and women, and left 19 others injured.

This marks the highest death toll since the ceasefire agreement in June. Israel has continued intermittent attacks on southern Lebanon, designating the area as a hideout for the pro-Iran militant group Hezbollah.
