At least seven people were killed in an Israeli strike on Nabatieh in Southern Lebanon, two security sources told Reuters early on Wednesday.

The strike appeared to be targeted at the militia group’s emergency and relief center in Hebbariyeh village in Southern Lebanon, the sources said.

On Tuesday, Israeli air strikes near two towns in northeast Lebanon killed three Hezbollah militants, the group posted on Telegram and Israel confirmed the strikes.

Hezbollah and the Israeli army have been trading fire since October in the worst cross-border violence since the 2006 Lebanon War.
