At least eight Lebanese citizens were martyred, and 14 others wounded in an Israeli airstrike on the town of Ain Yaacoub in the Akkar governorate in northern Lebanon, one of the farthest attacks from the Lebanese-Israeli border since the beginning of the war on Lebanon, according to the Lebanese Ministry of Health.

A security source reported that the airstrike destroyed a building housing a displaced family of a Hezbollah member.

The Israeli army continued its bombing of various cities and towns, especially in southern Lebanon, launching violent airstrikes on various locations across the country including the southern suburb of Beirut.

The official Lebanese News Agency reported that Israeli warplanes launched a raid on the southern suburb, shortly after the Israeli army issued a warning to residents in the areas of Haret Hreik, Ghobeiry, Laylaki and Hadath to evacuate.

The Israeli army artillery shelling, with incendiary phosphorous bombs, targeted the outskirts of the towns of Yater and Zebqin in the Bint Jbeil district in southern Lebanon, coinciding with heavy flights of drones and warplanes in the skies of the western sector in the Tyre district, according to the Lebanese agency.

The National News Agency reported that the Israeli warplanes carried out an earlier attack on the outskirts of the town of Shamshtar, west of Baalbek, in addition to an airstrike that targeted the town of Romin in the Nabatieh district.

On the other hand, Hezbollah bombed the cities of Acre and Haifa and large areas in the Western Galilee with a big number of rockets.

The Israeli army said in a statement that it monitored launching 90 missiles from Lebanon towards the Galilee and Haifa Bay, adding that it intercepted some of them.

Meanwhile, Israeli media reported that five people were injured in the last missile batch that targeted Haifa Bay, while the Israeli ambulance announced that its crews provided treatment to three people.
