According to the regional governor, Israeli strikes on Lebanon killed at least 30 people on Wednesday in the Bekaa Valley, near the eastern city of Baalbek. At sunset, more missiles struck the southern suburbs of Beirut.
The conflict between Israel and Hizbollah has been going on for more than a year, coinciding with the war in Gaza, but since late September, Israeli troops have been bombing large areas of the south and east of Lebanon more frequently and invading border villages on foot.
Bachir Khodr, the governor of the Baalbek-Hermel governorate, reported on X that about 20 Israeli attacks had killed 30 people and injured 35 more.
Following the Israeli military’s order for people to leave multiple areas, the region was the target of at least four strikes on Wednesday.
Details about what was struck and the number of casualties were not immediately available.
The assault occurred soon after Naim Qassem, the secretary general of Hizbollah, stated that he did not think “political action” would stop the fighting. If Israel ceased its attacks, he argued, there might be a path to indirect talks.
