The Israeli occupation has escalated its aggression against Lebanon, launching an attack on the southern suburb of Beirut as part of its continued assault on various Lebanese regions and villages in the Bekaa Valley and southern Lebanon.

According to the National News Agency, the latest attack targeted a building in the Beirut Southern Suburb of Bir al-Abed.

An Al Mayadeen correspondent reported that four missiles struck the building, though not all of them exploded. The initial reports indicate that seven people have been injured.

This marks the second attack on the Southern Suburb within two days. On Friday, Israeli forces targeted an eight-story residential building, killing 51 people, while dozens more were injured. Several individuals remain missing under the rubble.

Simultaneously, the Israeli occupation continues its widespread and brutal assault on various towns and villages across Bekaa and southern Lebanon. So far, the ongoing attacks have killed 274 people and left 1,024 wounded, according to preliminary figures.

Rescue and civil defense crews have been relentlessly trying to lift the rubble and transport casualties of the widespread Israeli aggression that targeted Lebanon's southern regions this afternoon.

An Israeli raid targeted the town of Braiqeh, destroying a number of civilian homes and killing several individuals. The town of Nmeiriyeh was also targeted in an Israeli airstrike, leading to the destruction of an inhabited home and the martyrdom of an entire family. 

In Arnoun, a civilian home was targeted, killing its inhabitants. The towns of Doueir and Yahmar al-Shaqif were also bombarded several times with casualties confirmed. 

Israeli aircraft raided the area between Burj Rahal and Abbasiya, as well as the towns of al-Mansouri, Srifa, and Deir Kifa.

The National News Agency reported that Israeli warplanes were flying over Mount Lebanon, while an Islamic Message Scouts ambulance was directly targeted in Sohmor, in West Bekaa. 

Israeli airstrikes trap southern Lebanon residents, hundreds killed

Residents of Majdal Selm village in southern Lebanon informed Sputnik on Monday that families living along the southern border are unable to evacuate to safer areas of the country due to heavy shelling by Israeli aircraft.

"Attacks are being carried out on houses and roads, they have not stopped since early morning. That is why we cannot leave the village," one of the residents said.

At least one family had been killed in an airstrike, one resident said, adding that similar incidents were occurring in the villages of Touline and Qabrikha.

Residents of nearby villages confirmed to Sputnik that they have been unable to evacuate due to ongoing bombings.

Meanwhile, the main road from southern Lebanon to Beirut has been paralyzed by a massive flow of refugees, stretching for kilometers.
