Two injured, one critically, in intense 'Israeli' airstrikes on southern Lebanon

Two individuals, a Lebanese and a Syrian national, were injured—one critically—during Israeli Occupation airstrikes on various areas in southern Lebanon, according to the official Lebanese news agency.

The airstrikes caused significant damage to infrastructure across the region.

Earlier on Sunday, the Israeli Occupation military announced the launch of a large-scale preemptive operation against Hezbollah in southern Lebanon, with over 40 airstrikes targeting the area.

In response, Hezbollah retaliated by firing numerous rockets at Israeli Occcupation military sites and Iron Dome defense systems in northern occupied Palestine.
