The state-run National News Agency said Israeli warplanes "carried out a very heavy strike... on the Tahouitet al-Ghadir area", the same district where Lebanese authorities said another raid earlier Friday killed two people.
Shortly after the Friday afternoon raid, Israel's military issued an evacuation warning for several neighbourhoods in the southern suburbs.
The NNA also reported Israel strikes on the country's south and east.
The health ministry said a raid on the town of Saksakiyeh in the south of the district of Sidon killed four people, while another in the east of the Bekaa region "killed a woman who was pregnant with twins".
In south Lebanon, Hezbollah said its fighters had clashed with "Israeli enemy army forces in the villages of Bayada and Shamaa at point-blank range with light and medium weapons".
The group also claimed responsibility for attacks on Israeli targets across the border.
Lebanon's coastal village of Bayada, adjacent to Shamaa, lies eight kilometres (around five miles) from the frontier.
Lebanese authorities say more than 1,100 people have been killed and more than one million others have been displaced, including some 136,000 staying in collective shelters.
The United Nations refugee agency's representative in Lebanon, Karolina Lindholm Billing, warned that "the situation remains extremely worrying and the risk of a humanitarian catastrophe... is real."
Nicolas Von Arx, regional director of the International Committee of the Red Cross, warned that "the humanitarian situation is worsening and civilians, as usual, are paying the highest price" in Lebanon.
After meeting Lebanese President Joseph Aoun, he said that "civilians must be protected wherever they are, whether they remain in their homes or are forced to flee".
