BEIRUT: Israel launched strikes across south Lebanon on Saturday after ordering evacuations from more than a dozen locations a day after its premier said Israeli forces had pushed even deeper into Lebanese territory.
Lebanon’s army said a “targeted” Israeli strike wounded two soldiers in the south, just a day after military delegations from both countries held landmark security talks in Washington.
The military talks in the US capital came ahead of US-brokered negotiations early next week — the fourth round since the latest Israel-Hezbollah conflict erupted.
Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency (NNA) reported Israeli several strikes in the south, including artillery fire near the mediaeval-era Beaufort castle.
