Aid Vehicle Targeted, Civilian Casualties Reported
Israeli occupation forces carried out a series of airstrikes across southern Lebanon on Wednesday, including a strike on a vehicle transporting humanitarian aid along the Saadiyat highway.
Footage from the scene showed a completely destroyed minivan, with canned and dry food supplies scattered across the road.
Additional strikes targeted civilian vehicles in the Jiyyeh area and along the road between the towns of Arabsalim and Habboush.
In the Nabatieh district, four members of the same family were killed in an Israeli airstrike on the town of Jbaa at dawn.
Three civilians were also injured in a separate strike on the town of al-Abbassiyah in the Tyre district.
Israeli warplanes expanded their attacks beyond roads and residential areas, striking farmland along the Litani River in the al-Wasta area.
A broader wave of airstrikes targeted multiple towns across southern Lebanon, including al-Babliyah, al-Majadil, Kharbat al-Dweir, Ansariya, Beit Yahoun, Hanine, Borj Qalaouiyeh, al-Ghandouriyah, Tayr Debba, and al-Bereghliyah, according to Lebanon’s National News Agency.
Strikes were also reported in Nabatieh al-Fawqa as part of the ongoing escalation.

Homes Demolished in Bint Jbeil
Israeli forces also carried out controlled demolitions of additional homes in the town of Bint Jbeil, further deepening destruction in one of the key frontline areas in southern Lebanon.
The demolitions come as clashes continue in and around the city, which remains a central point of confrontation between Israeli forces and Lebanese Resistance fighters.
The attacks form part of ongoing Israeli operations across southern Lebanon despite a ceasefire framework that, according to Iranian and Pakistani announcements, was meant to include Lebanon and other fronts.
However, Israeli forces have continued strikes across civilian areas, with repeated attacks on infrastructure, vehicles, and populated towns.
The escalation reflects the continued expansion of the war across multiple fronts, with southern Lebanon remaining under sustained aerial and ground pressure.
