The Israeli military has carried out a new round of airstrikes in southern Lebanon, less than a day after Israel and Lebanon held their first direct talks in decades, BBC reports, transmitted by RKS News.

Residents of the towns of Mjadel, Baraachit, Jbaa, and Mahrouna were instructed to evacuate areas surrounding sites that the Israeli military claimed were weapons depots belonging to the Iran-backed group. No casualties have been reported.

A spokesperson for the Israeli army said the sites constituted a violation of the ceasefire and warned that Israel would continue to act “to remove any threat” to its security.

Israel has conducted near-daily strikes in Lebanon since a ceasefire came into effect in November 2024, following 13 months of conflict.
