BEIRUT (AA) - Several people were reported injured on Sunday when an Israeli drone struck a house in the town of Houla in southern Lebanon, according to local media.
The state-run National News Agency said two missiles hit the house in the city, without providing further details.
The Israeli army confirmed the attack in Houla, saying it targeted a Hezbollah cell in the city.
According to Israel’s Army Radio, at least 10 missiles were launched from Lebanon into Upper Galilee in northern Israel.
No injuries or damage were reported.
Fears have grown about a full-fledged war between Israel and Hezbollah amid an exchange of almost daily attacks.
The escalation comes against the backdrop of a deadly Israeli onslaught against the Gaza Strip, which has killed nearly 39,000 people since last Oct. 7, following an attack by the Palestinian resistance group, Hamas.
