BEIRUT (AA) – One person was killed and eight others injured in Israeli airstrikes on Bekaa Valley in eastern Lebanon on Tuesday, according to the state-run National News Agency.

The fatalities occurred when Israeli fighter jets struck a residential building in the town of Dahr El-Ain near Baalbek.

A drone strike also targeted a farmland in the town of Nabi Chit in Baalbek.

Baalbek is a stronghold for the Lebanese group Hezbollah, which has engaged in cross-border clashes with Israel since the outbreak of the Gaza conflict last October, in the deadliest clashes since the two sides fought a full-scale war in 2006.

A person was killed and five others injured in a similar Israeli airstrike on Baalbek on Monday.

At least 300 people are estimated to have been killed in Lebanon, including 240 Hezbollah fighters, since the clashes erupted five months ago. Nearly 20 Israelis have also been killed, according to Israeli figures.
