Two Lebanese citizens were shot by Israeli occupation forces (IOF) on Sunday in the border town of Maroun al-Ras, in the district of Bint Jbeil, in southern Lebanon.

The Lebanese Ministry of Health announced that two citizens were injured by rubber bullets fired by the IOF in the town of Maroun al-Ras.

Meanwhile, the Lebanese News Agency reported that the occupation army targeted the “Al-Randa neighborhood” on the eastern outskirts of the town of Aita al-Shaab with a number of artillery shells, while an Israeli drone dropped a bomb on an area located between the towns of Yarin and Al-Dahira in the district of Tyre, south of Lebanon.

Israeli warplanes flew at low altitude over the city of Hermel and at medium altitude over the Baalbek area, in a renewed violation of Lebanese airspace.

On October 8, 2023, Israel launched an aggression against Lebanon that turned into a full-scale war on September 23, 2024, resulting in more than 4,000 martyrs and nearly 17,000 wounded, in addition to the displacement of nearly 1.4 million people.

Since the ceasefire agreement came into effect last November, the Israeli occupation army has committed at least 2,777 violations, leaving at least 199 martyrs and 491 wounded, according to official Lebanese figures.

Israel reneged on its commitment to complete its withdrawal from southern Lebanon by February 18, contrary to the agreement, carrying out only a partial withdrawal and continuing to occupy five key Lebanese hills within the areas it occupied in the recent offensive.
