Israeli occupation forces continue committing harrowing massacres in various regions across Lebanon, more than two weeks after the significant escalation of aggression, which has been particularly targeting displaced civilians in supposed safe areas of refuge.
The Israeli aggression thus continues stretching from the South to the North, the Bekaa Valley, and even into the heart of the Lebanese capital, Beirut.
Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that four people were killed in an Israeli airstrike targeting a house early today in the town of Jarjouh in the Tyre district.
The Israeli occupation forces focused their strikes on the Al-Owaida hill and surrounding hills opposite the town of Taybe, as well as the Deir Seryan area in the Marjeyoun district.
Additionally, Israeli warplanes launched attacks on the Ain Al-Samahiya area, located between the towns of Zawtar and Mayfadoun, and on the western part of Zawtar, as well as areas between the towns of Houmine al-Fawqa and Roumin in the Nabatieh district, and in the town of Haneen in the Bint Jbeil district. Other targeted locations included the town of Khiam, the Marjeyoun plain, and Kfar Chouba.

Concurrently, an Israeli drone also conducted a strike this morning, using a guided missile to target a motorcycle near a parking lot in Kfar Sir, with no reported injuries, according to the National News Agency.
The Israeli forces further targeted the towns of Kfarrouman and Brayqe' in southern Lebanon with guided missile strikes.
Moreover, Israeli warplanes bombed a house in the town of al-Qusayba with an airstrike, reducing it to rubble.
In the Bekaa region of eastern Lebanon, Israeli warplanes launched multiple strikes last night around the city of Baalbek and the towns of Ali Al-Nahri, Al-Ain, and Sha'th, targeting civilian areas and health centers.

Israeli warplanes reportedly used cluster munitions and toxic gases in their bombardment, leading to the closure of several main roads.
The Israeli attacks on the Bekaa region alone have resulted in the killing of 328 people since the start of the Israeli aggression against Lebanon.
Aggression on Lebanon: 2,309 killed, 10,782 injured by 'Israel'
On Monday, an Israeli raid targeted a house where displaced civilians had sought refuge in the town of Aitou in the Zgharta district.
The Lebanese Health Ministry's Public Health Emergency Operations Center (PHEOC) revealed that DNA tests were being done to identify the martyrs who were torn into pieces following the aggression. The death toll of the massacre reached 21 martyrs, while eight others were injured.
The strike marked the second time "Israel" targets the North, after an attack on Deir Billa in Batroun.
Earlier, the PHEOC stated that 2,309 Lebanese were killed and 10,782 more were injured in the Israeli aggression on the country, after updating the death toll following Sunday's aggression.
