Israeli occupation forces intensified their assaults on towns along the Lebanese border on Monday, targeting several areas with grenade drone drops and live rifle fire. According to Al Mayadeen’s correspondent in South Lebanon, an Israeli drone dropped a grenade on the town of Kfar Kila, continuing the ongoing pattern of aggression against border communities.
In the western sector, Israeli aircraft dropped two additional grenades on the town of Dhayra, while another drone launched a similar attack on the eastern neighborhood of Mays al-Jabal. These repeated air violations have heightened tensions in the region, already suffering from near-daily bombardment.
The correspondent confirmed that occupation troops opened fire from the al-Ramtha and Ruwaysat al-Alam positions toward the outskirts of Bastra and Kfar Shouba. Gunfire was also reported from the Radar site targeting the outskirts of Shebaa.
A day earlier, the Israeli occupation assaulted fishermen off Ras al-Naqoura, fired on the border town of Aitaroun, and targeted a drilling machine in Shebaa, damaging a civilian vehicle and adding to a growing list of attacks on residents and property in South Lebanon.
Repeat violations of UNSC Resolution 1701
Israeli occupation forces carried out new attacks in southern Lebanon on Sunday, targeting civilian areas along the border in clear violation of the year-old ceasefire and UN Security Council Resolution 1701.
According to Al Mayadeen’s correspondent in the South, Israeli aircraft dropped four stun grenades toward a group of fishermen in Ras al-Naqoura early in the morning.
Al Mayadeen’s correspondent also confirmed that Israeli forces opened fire from the newly established Jabal al-Bat position toward the outskirts of the town of Aitaroun.
Meanwhile, in the town of Shebaa, the occupation targeted a construction excavator working to clear rubble from a destroyed home. A nearby four-wheel-drive vehicle sustained damage in the attack.
Persistent Israeli violations across Lebanon
These incidents come amid continued Israeli aggression throughout Lebanon’s southern border region, as well as in the Bekaa and the Southern Suburb of Beirut. The renewed escalation highlights what Lebanese officials describe as systematic and ongoing breaches of the ceasefire agreement, which marked its first anniversary this week.
Residents and local authorities warn that the attacks not only threaten the fragile truce but also directly endanger civilian life and obstruct reconstruction efforts in areas impacted by previous bombings.
Israeli violations of the ceasefire agreement with Lebanon have continued unabated over the past year, Hezbollah’s Media Relations said on Thursday, marking one year since the ceasefire agreement was reached in November 2024.
According to the statement, the ceasefire, which came into effect at 4 am on November 27, 2024, followed more than two months of Israeli military aggression targeting South Lebanon, the eastern regions, and the capital, Beirut. Other Lebanese areas also came under attack periodically.
