BEIRUT (AA) - Another Hezbollah fighter was killed in clashes with Israeli forces in southern Lebanon on Thursday, the group said.

It identified the slain fighter as Hussein Muhammad Badawi, 39, from the town of Ras al-Ain in southern Lebanon.

At least 321 Hezbollah fighters have been killed in clashes with Israeli forces since last October, according to an Anadolu tally.

Earlier in the day, Israel attacked the town of Houla, and also shelled the outskirts of the towns of Alma Ash-Shaab and Naqoura, Lebanon’s National News Agency reported.

The exchange of fire between Hezbollah and Israel along the shared Israeli-Lebanese border has continued in parallel to the Gaza conflict, displacing thousands of people on both sides and fueling concerns of a wider escalation.
