The Israeli military conducted fresh airstrikes and artillery bombardments in southern Lebanon on Monday evening, just days after Beirut and Tel Aviv signed a US-sponsored framework agreement aimed at facilitating a phased withdrawal and reducing hostilities along the border.

The Israeli army launched a new wave of strikes across southern Lebanon on Monday evening, carrying out an airstrike that targeted the area between the towns of Qantara and Deir Siryan in Nabatieh Governorate, according to Lebanon's state-run National News Agency. Heavy artillery shelling also struck the outskirts of Deir Siryan toward the course of the Litani River, the outlet reported.

Border towns targeted

Artillery fire additionally targeted the town of Hadatha in the Bint Jbeil District, the agency said. No information was yet available regarding injuries or casualties from the Monday evening strikes.

Diplomatic backdrop

The attacks came despite a US-sponsored framework agreement signed on Friday between Beirut and Tel Aviv aimed at facilitating a phased Israeli withdrawal from Lebanese territory and reducing hostilities along the border.

Since March 2, Israel has conducted a military offensive in Lebanon that has killed at least 4,247 people, injured 12,195 others and displaced over 1 million, according to the Lebanese Health Ministry.
