Free Malaysia Today reports that the Israeli army conducted renewed airstrikes and artillery shelling in several southern Lebanese towns on Sunday. Israeli warplanes bombed Kfar Tebnit in the Nabatieh district, struck the town of Mansouri in the Tyre district, and artillery shelling hit Majdal Zoun. Additionally, heavy and concentrated artillery shelling occurred overnight in the area between Mayfadoun and Zawtar al-Sharqiyah.
These actions come amid an ongoing offensive against Lebanon that began on March 2, which has resulted in 4,386 deaths and 12,413 injuries according to Lebanon’s Health Ministry. Free Malaysia Today notes that these attacks occur despite a US-brokered framework arrangement signed on June 26, which provides for a gradual Israeli withdrawal and the deployment of the Lebanese army in vacated areas.
