After Hezbollah ‘warning shots’, Israeli army hits Lebanon

Our correspondent in Lebanon says Israeli warplanes have bombed the outskirts of the town of Yaroun and the area of Burghaz in southern Lebanon.

Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency says Yaroun was attacked, and that the Israeli army also carried out attacks on the towns of Shebaa, Beit Lif and Talloussa.

The attack on Talloussa, it said, caused injuries.

A short while ago, the Israeli army said it would respond harshly to Hezbollah’s “warning shots”, fired today in response to what the group called Israel’s repeated ceasefire violations.

Pentagon says ceasefire between Hezbollah and Israel holding

The Pentagon says that despite some incidents, the ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah is holding.

“Broadly speaking, it is our assessment that despite some of these incidents that we are seeing, the ceasefire is holding,” Patrick Ryder, a Pentagon spokesman, told reporters.

His comments come as Israel is promising a “harsh response” to Hezbollah fire, which the Lebanese group said it launched in response to multiple ceasefire violations by Israel.
