"At around 3:45 am (1245 GMT) enemy aircraft carried out an airstrike targeting the old mosque in the centre of the village of Kfar Tibnit, completely destroying it," the National News Agency reported.
Village mayor Fuad Yassin told AFP the village, located about eight kilometres from the border, had lost a beloved site that brought people together.
"It was a significant place because families used to gather in the square right next to it on special occasions," Yassin said, adding that the mosque was at least 100 years old.
Israel has killed at least 2,255 people in Lebanon since the start of the war on Gaza, including more than 1,400 people since it started the attack on Lebanon in the country, according to Lebanon's Health Ministry.
