Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency (NNA) said on Sunday Israeli forces struck “an apartment in a residential building” in a northern district of the coastal city of Sidon, killing one person and causing a fire. Israel is fighting a second front in the war in the Middle East in southern Lebanon, with its forces targeting the Hezbollah group, alongside the air campaign against Iran that it launched with the United States more than two weeks ago. The Israeli military said in a statement on Sunday that it continued to strike infrastructure used by Hezbollah throughout Lebanon, and hit several of its “launch sites” in al-Qatrani, where it said the Iran-backed group was preparing to fire missiles. He said the Israeli army would “forcefully operate” in these areas, citing what he called Hezbollah activities in the neighbourhoods. According to Lebanon’s Health Ministry, Israeli air raids have killed 826 people in Lebanon since the start of the latest war, which began on March 2. United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres recently said Lebanese people have been “dragged into” a war, as he called for an end to the fighting amid Israel’s continued assault on several areas of the country.
