Lebanon's Ministry of Health reported early Saturday that six Lebanese citizens were killed and at least three others injured in an Israeli Occupation airstrike on Wadi Al-Kfour in the Nabatieh region of southern Lebanon.

The ministry added that the airstrike targeted a residential building in the area. Initial reports indicate that the attack resulted in multiple casualties, including both fatalities and injuries.

This incident comes amid ongoing tensions along Lebanon's southern border with Israeli Occupation, which have escalated since Hamas' military wing, the Al-Qassam Brigades, launched Operation Aqsa Typhoon in response to Israeli Occupation's actions in the occupied Palestinian territories.
