At least eight killed in Israeli strikes on south Lebanon

The IDF carried out airstrikes in southern Lebanon, the military confirmed on Wednesday. 

Security sources told Reuters on Wednesday that at least eight people, including Hezbollah terrorists, have been killed in Israeli airstrikes in southern Lebanon.

Five were killed in a strike on the border village of Tair Harfa and a strike shortly afterward that hit a restaurant in the border town of Naqura killed at least another three people, the security sources and official Lebanese media said.

Iran-backed Hezbollah said it had launched dozens of rockets over the border at Kiryat Shmona in northern Israel early on Wednesday in response to deadly Israeli air strikes on the village of Hebbariyeh in southern Lebanon a day earlier.

Those airstrikes near two towns in northeast Lebanon killed three Hezbollah militants, the heavily armed Shi'ite Muslim group said.
