Israeli attacks on southern Lebanon continued on Friday, with airstrikes, artillery shelling, and explosions in several border areas, coinciding with the continued stalling in the implementation of security understandings between Lebanon and Israel under American auspices. The Lebanese National News Agency reported that Israeli warplanes carried out a raid near Tal Ali al-Taher on the outskirts of the town of Nabatieh al-Fawqa, southern Lebanon. The outskirts of the town of Zawtar al-Sharqiya were also subjected to intermittent artillery shelling, while an Israeli drone dropped a sound bomb near the town of Kfar Shuba. In the same context, Israeli forces carried out an explosion in the area between the towns of Zawtar al-Sharqiya and Kfar Tibnit, while fires broke out in the forests of the town of Qantara towards the Salouqi area, amid the continuation of Israeli military movements along the border areas. Several Lebanese areas, including Beirut, Tyre, and their surroundings, witnessed intense flights of Israeli drones. These developments come amid ongoing disagreements over the implementation of security understandings, particularly regarding the Israeli withdrawal from Lebanese areas, the deployment of the Lebanese army, and security arrangements in the south.
