On Saturday, Israeli airstrikes killed six people in southern Lebanon, marking a significant escalation just 10 days after a ceasefire between Hezbollah and "Israel" took effect.

The truce, implemented on November 27, aimed to end a devastating conflict that has claimed thousands of lives and displaced masses on both sides.

Lebanon's Health Ministry reported that an Israeli airstrike on the town of Beit Lif killed six people and injured five others.

In a separate event, a drone strike killed one person in Deir Seryan, more than 20 kilometers away.

Lebanon's National News Agency confirmed that a drone strike targeted a motorcycle in Deir Seryan.

Continued violence

The incidents follow a pattern of escalations throughout the week. On Monday, Israeli strikes killed nine people in south Lebanon. 

The aggression occurred shortly after Hezbollah launched warning strikes in response to repeated Israeli ceasefire violations.

Despite these incidents, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken described the ceasefire as "holding" during remarks on Wednesday.

A multinational committee chaired by the United States, including France, UN peacekeepers, "Israel," and Lebanon, is responsible for monitoring ceasefire violations. However, this latest aggression points to the growing fragility of the agreement.

Earlier today, Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Mikati condemned the attacks and called on the international community to act decisively.

He urged "the international community, particularly the parties sponsoring security arrangements, to work seriously and decisively to halt the ongoing violations by the enemy, ensure its withdrawal from occupied territories and actively contribute to implementing the ceasefire," Mikati said.
