Israel said it struck targets in Lebanon on Monday evening after vowing to retaliate for an attack by Hezbollah on a military post, with both sides accusing each other of violating last week’s ceasefire.

At least nine people were killed by Israeli strikes on two southern Lebanese villages, according to the country’s public health ministry.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said it struck Hezbollah targets and infrastructure “throughout Lebanon”, while reiterating its commitment to the ceasefire agreement. 

Hezbollah, however said it was responding to Israeli “violations” and said it carried out a “defensive warning” strike, firing mortars at an Israeli army position in an area occupied by Israel.
