JAKARTA - A total of 10 people were killed and six injured in an Israeli air raid in southern Lebanon. The attack on Sunday, March 8, targeted the town of Sir al-Gharbiyyeh in Nabatieh District, according to a report by the Lebanese National News Agency (NNA).

A total of 49 people were killed in a series of airstrikes in the Lebanese capital, Beirut, and the country's southern region on Sunday (8/3), according to reports from the Ministry of Health and local media.

As reported by ANTARA from Anadolu, Monday, March 9, the attack occurred a day after at least 55 people, including children, were killed in a series of Israeli airstrikes in eastern and southern Lebanon on Saturday (7/3).

Israel has expanded its military operations in Lebanon since last Monday after limited rocket attacks by the Hezbollah group amid wider regional tensions related to the US-Israeli war against Iran.

Regional tensions have escalated since February 28, when the US and Israel launched a joint attack on Iran that has killed more than 1,200 people, including Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.

Iran retaliated with drone and missile attacks targeting Israel and Gulf states that host US military assets.

The escalation has spread to Lebanon, with Israel and Hezbollah launching cross-border attacks that have killed nearly 400 people, injured more than 1,100 people, and displaced thousands since Monday, according to Lebanese data.
