Israeli artillery shelled an area in southern Lebanon early Wednesday morning. According to Lebanon’s National News Agency, the shelling targeted an urban area in Lebanon’s southern governorate. The same agency reported that Israeli fighter jets flew extensively over southern Lebanon on Wednesday morning.
No reports of casualties or damage have been released, and the Israeli army has made no comment about the shelling.
Israeli attacks on southern Lebanon have continued in recent days. Early Sunday morning, the Israeli army targeted positions and said these attacks were carried out after the launch of an explosive drone by Hezbollah.
The Israeli army controls about six percent of Lebanon’s territory and, despite a ceasefire brokered by the United States, has refused to withdraw.
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio met on Monday in Washington with Najib Mikati, the Prime Minister of Lebanon. A new round of negotiations between Israel, Lebanon and the United States is set to be held next month in Rome.
