Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency said on Tuesday that an Israeli airstrike on the southern town of Kfar Kila has caused “massive damages”.
NNA said that Israel hit the southern town of Kfar Kila with four heavy missiles that caused major damage.
Another two air raids targeted the town of Al Khyam at midnight, it added.
Israel on one hand, and Hezbollah and other armed Palestinian factions on the other have engaged in near-daily exchange of cross-border fire since the Israeli war erupted in Gaza on October 6.
On Monday, Hezbollah said it hit three Israeli outposts in north Israel using armed drones and missiles.
Israeli media outlets said four soldiers were injured in an attack near the border.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Wednesday urged all countries to "take their hands off" Syria and said Turkey had the capacity and ability to crush all terrorist organizations in the country, including Kurdish militia and ISIS.

Speaking in parliament, Erdogan said the Kurdish YPG militia was the biggest problem in Syria now after the ousting of former President Bashar al-Assad.

The group would not be able to escape its inevitable end unless it lays down its arms, he stressed.
