Israeli warplanes have conducted more than 120 airstrikes against town and villages lying across southern and eastern Lebanon, killing a Lebanese civilian and injuring six others.
The aircraft carried out the attacks against the southern areas and the Bekaa Valley, which lies in the country’s east, where the fatality was caused, on Monday, Press TV reports.
Lebanese sources said the airstrikes had targeted more than 40 areas of the country. The country’s media outlets said the aircraft had bombed all the towns and villages lying on the southern border as well as their surroundings.
Israeli media, meanwhile, alleged that the attacks had hit locations lying as far as 125 kilometers inside the Lebanese territory.
Israeli military spokesman Danieh Hagari said the regime "will engage in more extensive and precise strikes” against Lebanon, adding that the attacks would "go on for the near future.”
Lebanon’s Hezbollah resistance movement has responded with numerous strikes against the occupied Palestinian territories as means of both retaliating against the regime and displaying support for the war-hit Gazans.
