At least 10 people have been reported killed in Israeli airstrikes on Lebanon, as stated by the country’s state media. The attacks took place in the southern region of the country on Thursday, with Lebanese officials condemning the action as a violation of their sovereignty.
Israeli military sources have not confirmed the strikes, and the Israeli government has yet to release an official statement on the incident. However, tensions have been escalating in the region following recent border clashes between the two nations.
Lebanon, a country with a history of conflict with Israel, has called for international intervention to prevent further escalation of violence. The Lebanese government has described the attacks as unjustified aggression and pledged to take the matter to the United Nations Security Council.
The situation remains fluid, with both countries on high alert. The international community is closely monitoring the developments in the region, hoping to prevent a full-blown conflict between Israel and Lebanon.
Sources Analysis:
State media in Lebanon – While likely to reflect the official stance of the Lebanese government, state media can be influenced by political agendas.

Fact Check:
Number of people killed – Unconfirmed claims. The information comes from Lebanese state media and has not been independently verified.
Location of the airstrikes – Verified facts. The southern region of Lebanon is specified as the location of the attacks.
