Lebanese health ministry says 4 killed in Israeli strikes
2025-10-24
[IsraelTimes] Four people were killed in Israeli airstrikes in eastern and southern Lebanon, the country’s health ministry says.

The ministry reported that strikes in mountainous areas in the east resulted in an initial death toll of two people.

It later stated that two others were killed in a separate strike in the south around Nabatieh, with the official National News Agency (NNA) reporting an elderly woman was one of the dead.

The NNA had earlier said that “Israeli warplanes launched a series of violent strikes on the eastern mountain range” in the Beqaa region near the border with Syria.

It also reported that two Israeli strikes targeted the Hermel range in the country’s northeast.

The IDF had confirmed carrying out an airstrike in Nabatieh, saying it was targeting a Hezbollah weapons depot. It also said it carried out airstrikes in Lebanon’s eastern Beqaa Valley, saying it targeted a Hezbollah training camp where operatives were gathered and a precision missile manufacturing site, among other targets.

According to the military, the training camp was used by Hezbollah to plan attacks against Israel. The missile manufacturing site in the Beqaa Valley has been struck by the IDF numerous times before. The IDF says it also struck a Hezbollah military site in northern Lebanon.
More from the Times of Israel:
The IDF confirms carrying out an airstrike in the Nabaitieh area of southern Lebanon this evening, saying it targeted a Hezbollah weapons depot.

The military says the depot, in the town of Arabsalim, was used by Hezbollah to advance attacks on Israel, and that the terror group was continuing efforts to rebuild its infrastructure in southern Lebanon.

“The presence of the terror infrastructure constitutes a violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon,” the army says.
Even more from the Times of Israel:
In total, five fighter jets hit 16 Hezbollah targets during the strikes in the Beqaa Valley and in the north of the country, according to the military.

“The storage of weapons, the presence of terror infrastructure, and the conduct of military training against the State of Israel by Hezbollah terrorists constitute a blatant violation of the understandings between Israel and Lebanon and a threat to the State of Israel,” the military adds.
