Dozens of rockets have been launched from Lebanon into the occupied Golan Heights. Hezbollah fighters say they targeted an Israeli base and air defence post. The attack follows Israeli strikes in Lebanon’s Bekaa valley, 100 kilometres from the border. Cross-border fire has been common, since the war on Gaza began. And earlier on Sunday, Israel’s military said it has completed another phase of preparations for a possible full-on war, with Lebanon and Syria.

Exchanges of fire on the Israel-Lebanon border are escalating. Hezbollah has launched a barrage of 100 rockets into Israeli territory. At least 100 were fired from southern Lebanon towards northern Galilee and the occupied Golan Heights. That escalation comes after Israel launched an attack deep inside Lebanon overnight that killed at least 4 civilians and a number injured in Baalbek – 100 km from the border with Israel. The same area was attacked last month. Israeli’s Iron Dome defence system intercepted some of those missiles. Al Jazeera’s Zeina Khodr reports from Beirut, Lebanon.

Israel has hit Hezbollah targets in eastern Lebanon for the first time since the start of the War on Gaza. At least two simultaneous Israeli strikes hit around the city of Baalbek. The Israeli army says the strikes were in retaliation for Hezbollah’s downing of one of its armed drones in southern Lebanon. Hezbollah responded by firing a barrage of rockets targeting Israeli military positions close to the border. Al Jazeera’s Zeina Khodr reports from Beirut, Lebanon.

At least two people have been killed, including a child after an Israeli air strike hit southern Lebanon. The attack targeted the border village of Majdal Zoun. Three others are injured. A woman identified as Khadija Salman was killed as Israeli shelling targeted the town of Majdal Zoun in southern Lebanon, according to Lebanese media. Her daughter was also seriously injured in the attack. Lebanese media platforms shared scenes of smoke rising as a result of the shelling. Israel is engaged in a tit-for-tat battle with the armed group Hezbollah on Lebanon’s southern border. Today, Hezbollah said it hit two buildings where Israeli soldiers are stationed in Israel’s Avivim settlement. […]
Israeli warplanes have struck targets deep inside Lebanon. The town of Ghaziyeh is 60km north of Israel’s border. In the past four months, Israel has repeatedly struck areas of southern Lebanon it says have links to Hezbollah. It has also conducted targeted assassinations. In response, the armed group has fired rockets into Israel. Al Jazeera’s Zeina Khodr has the latest developments in Beirut, Lebanon.

There have been several Israeli air raids, and several Hezbollah attacks today. Hezbollah has claimed responsibility for at least eight attacks on Israeli targets. The Israeli army is announcing nine of its soldiers have been wounded, including one that was severely injured. Here in Lebanon there were three Israeli air raids on the Qlaileh valley, which connects Naqoura to Tyre. Also, there were a couple of air raids at greater depth, about 16 kilometers (10 miles) from the border. Meanwhile, there were several attacks and artillery bombardment, which we witness on an hourly basis, towards the open areas in Naqoura and towards the eastern and central sectors of southern Lebanon. […]
Over the recent hours, several Israeli air raids targeted the hills overlooking Naqoura. Simultaneously, Hezbollah carried out attacks in the morning with no reported casualties. Israel aims to push Hezbollah beyond the Litani River, approximately 20km from the border, focusing the conflict in that area. Seizing this opportunity, Israel is striking Hezbollah’s infrastructure developed since the 2006 war. Concurrently, Hezbollah strives to target Israeli intelligence apparatus on the border, including communication devices, cameras, and infantry. Al Jazeera’s Ali Hashem is monitoring the latest in Naqoura in Southern Lebanon.

Israel is stepping up its military operations – air attacks striking deeper into Lebanon. Overnight, it targeted a site in the Iqlim al-Tuffah region approximately 20km (12 miles) from the border, an area where Hezbollah has military assets. That could have been in response to Hezbollah firing surface-to-air missiles that exploded close to Israeli helicopters flying in Israeli air space close to the border. Both sides are sending messages to each other – a form of deterrence, “If you hit us, we are able to hit you.” The frequency of the attacks has increased, but it is still largely confined to the border area. Al Jazeera’s Zeina Khodr has the […]
