A Lebanese citizen was martyred and at least 5 others were injured in an Israeli strike that hit early Tuesday Baalbek area in northeastern Lebanon, as the Israeli occupation army announced targeting two Lebanese Hezbollah buildings in the same area, about 100 kilometers from the border.

Baalbek Governor Bashir Khader said in a post on X, “Baalbek-Hermel Governorate was hit by a number of Israeli strikes that targeted the towns of Durus, Taria, and Shamstar”, noting that an olive oil factory was hit in Durus, leading to the martyrdom of one person.

According to the official Lebanese media agency, Israeli aircraft shelled a warehouse west of Baalbek, between the towns of Shamstar and Taria.

Al-Jazeera reported the injury of 6 people in the Israeli strikes that targeted the vicinity of the city of Baalbek in eastern Lebanon.

On the other hand, the Israeli occupation army said its forces targeted two Lebanese Hezbollah buildings in the Bekaa region of Lebanon.

Earlier on Monday, Hezbollah announced launching a drone attack on an Israeli air defense headquarters in the occupied Golan Heights, targeting the air and missile defense headquarters in the Kaila barracks with 4 drones.

Since the outbreak of the Israeli war on the Gaza Strip on October 7, the Israeli-Lebanese border has been witnessing an escalation of gunfire between the Israeli army on the one hand and Hezbollah and Palestinian factions on the other hand.
