Overnight Israeli strikes in the southern Lebanese town of Kfar Rumman resulted in the death of 11 people, including two infants, according to Lebanese state media. Nine individuals were killed and five others wounded when an Israeli airstrike destroyed a three-story residential building in the town. Additionally, a separate Israeli drone strike killed two paramedics named Ali Shahrour and Hadi Farhat.
Rescuers were still searching the rubble of the residential building for possible survivors and additional victims the following morning. The village, located close to the southern city of Nabatieh, had seen residents return following a June truce. Israel did not issue an evacuation warning before the strikes, while its military issued one before an attack on a building in nearby Deir Zahrani, claiming it was targeting a Hezbollah facility.
