Airstrikes, Shelling Continue in South Lebanon Despite Ceasefire, Reports Say

Naharnet reports ongoing Israeli drone strikes and shelling in southern Lebanon despite an announced ceasefire, with several injuries and one reported death.

What happened

Naharnet Lebanon reports that airstrikes, shelling, and detonations continued across several areas in southern Lebanon despite a ceasefire meant to halt hostilities. Israeli drones targeted locations including the Kafra-Assi road, Beit Yahoun, and al-Mansouri, injuring multiple people according to the National News Agency.

Outside Brief is treating this as a source-led account. Any disputed responsibility, casualty figure, battlefield claim or single-source assertion should be treated as unconfirmed/hearsay unless confirmed by another reliable source or a named official. The source adds that Israeli forces conducted demolitions in villages such as Zawtar al-Sharqiyeh, Haddatha, Beit Yahoun, Wadi Touline, and Wadi Slouqi. Overnight artillery shelling reportedly struck Kfar Remman, while additional strikes hit Deir Seryan and violence was noted in Bani Hayyan and al-Qantara through multiple detonations.

Naharnet also reports that Israeli twin strikes on Nabatieh on Tuesday resulted in one fatality and caused damage to an ambulance. These details reflect ongoing clashes that persist despite declared ceasefire agreements, with the source attributing operations specifically to Israeli forces but not confirming broader responsibility or ceasefire terms adherence.

What remains unclear

These reports signal a fragile and volatile security environment in south Lebanon where ceasefire efforts remain ineffective in halting violence. The continuing operations affect local civilian populations and infrastructure, complicating any diplomatic or UNIFIL-led attempts at stabilisation in the region.

What remains unclear: Confirm whether the central claim is corroborated; until then treat it as unconfirmed/hearsay. Verify the exact casualty numbers and identities from independent or official sources. Confirm the full terms and current status of the ceasefire mentioned in reports. Cross-check strike attribution claims with statements from Israeli, Lebanese, and UNIFIL officials.
