Israeli Air Force Strikes Southern Lebanon, Flies Low Over Region
Editorial illustration generated by baba News — not a photograph of the event.

The Israeli Air Force conducted a strike on the Nabatieh al-Fawqa area in southern Lebanon on Saturday morning. Concurrently, Israeli warplanes were observed flying at low altitudes over extensive areas of the south. Lebanese media described the strike as a "violent Israeli raid" targeting Nabatieh al-Fawqa. As of now, there is no confirmed information regarding casualties or the specific nature of the targeted site. This raid occurs amidst ongoing Israeli attacks on southern Lebanon in recent days, which have included airstrikes, artillery shelling, and explosions in border towns and regions.

Politically, Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam, during a visit to Nabatieh city on Friday, called for an end to Israeli attacks and a complete Israeli withdrawal from Lebanese territory. He emphasized the need to strengthen state authority and centralize decision-making. Salam stated that Lebanon cannot wait for a broader regional settlement, stressing that priorities include halting Israeli attacks, ensuring a full withdrawal, the return of displaced persons to their homes, and the reconstruction of the south.
