Beirut, May 9 (CNA) Lebanon's authorities stated that Israel launched airstrikes across the country today, with at least 7 people killed in Saksakiyeh in the south. The Israeli military stated that it had struck over 85 Hezbollah infrastructure strongholds in the past 24 hours.
According to Agence France-Presse and Reuters, Israel and Hezbollah are in the midst of a three-week ceasefire, and Israel's new attacks represent a particularly intense wave during this period. The current ceasefire agreement has done little to stop the exchange of fire between the two sides, with most of the conflicts occurring in southern Lebanon.
Hezbollah stated today that in response to the ongoing attacks, they launched at least two drone attacks on Israeli military forces in northern Israel.
The Israeli military stated that several suicide drones entered Israeli territory, with one attack seriously injuring a reservist and moderately injuring two others.
On the other hand, Lebanon's state-run National News Agency (NNA) reported that a series of Israeli airstrikes in southern Lebanon included Saksakiyeh. Lebanon's Ministry of Health stated that the attack "initially caused 7 martyrs, including one girl; and 15 injured, including 3 children."
The Israeli military stated that they struck "Hezbollah terrorists in a military purpose building" in Saksakiyeh.
Lebanon's Ministry of Health also noted that Israel attacked Nabatieh and Bedias. Nabatieh had 1 dead and 1 injured, while Bedias had 1 dead and 13 injured, including 6 children and 2 women.
According to the ceasefire terms announced by Washington, Israel reserves the right to act against "planned, imminent or ongoing attacks."
Iran-backed Hezbollah became involved in the Middle East conflict on March 2 when they fired rockets at Israel in retaliation for the death of Iran's supreme leader in a US-Israeli attack.
Lebanese and Israeli representatives are scheduled to hold a new round of direct talks in Washington next week. Hezbollah member of parliament Hassan Fadlallah called on the Lebanese government to withdraw and instead engage in indirect negotiations. (Edited by Chu Hsiang-ping) 1140510
