Lebanon's state-run National News Agency (NNA) reported a series of Israeli strikes throughout the morning targeting multiple locations in the south, including Kfra, Aramta, the heights of Jabal Safi, Majdal Zoun, Housh near Tyre, and the elevated Jabal al-Rayhan region.
A drone strike on a vehicle along the Housh road east of Tyre caused injuries, according to NNA, while separate strikes targeted Housh Tyre and areas around the towns of Frun and Ghandoorieh, which were also subjected to artillery fire.
The latest attacks came after a night of heavy bombardment that included strikes on Deir al-Zahrani, Ghandoorieh and Borj Qalaouiyeh, as well as an Israeli raid near Jabal Amel Hospital in Tyre.
According to NNA, at least three people were killed in strikes on the southern towns of Doueir and Habboush. Hassan Youssef Sarhan was killed when an overnight air strike destroyed a residential building in Doueir, while physician Mohammad Jaafar Ahmad Nehme and Hassan Nidal Jouni were killed in separate strikes on Habboush on Friday morning.
Lebanese media also reported a critically injured casualty in Doueir.
Earlier attacks near Jabal Amel Hospital wounded 12 people and destroyed a building housing a branch of Bank Audi, according to NNA. Civil defence teams transported the injured to the nearby hospital.
Israeli strikes also hit the vicinity of Harouf-Toul roundabout, the Popular Relief junction in Nabatiyeh, Habboush and Abaa, where a motorcycle was reportedly targeted by guided missiles. Additional artillery shelling struck Kfarreman, Nabatiyeh al-Fawqa, Choukine, Meifadoun, Deir Kifa and the outskirts of Borj Qalaouiyeh.
The latest attacks unfolded amid worsening humanitarian conditions across Lebanon.
According to Lebanese authorities and humanitarian agencies, the number of displaced people has risen to between 1.3 million and 1.6 million, representing more than a quarter of the country's population. The crisis deepened sharply at the beginning of June after Israeli evacuation warnings for Beirut's southern suburbs prompted an estimated 200,000 residents to flee in a single day.
NNA reported Friday that the southern town of Aanqoun, recently included in Israeli warning notices, is currently sheltering around 2,500 displaced people in addition to its own residents.
More than 135,000 displaced people are currently housed in collective shelters that aid agencies say are severely overcrowded, while thousands of others have sought refuge on streets, public spaces and beaches. The influx has placed mounting pressure on already fragile water, sanitation and public service networks.
Lebanese health officials say more than 3,500 people have been killed and over 10,000 wounded since the latest major phase of the conflict began in March 2026. Repeated attacks near healthcare facilities, including Jabal Amel Hospital in Tyre and Sheikh Ragheb Harb Hospital in Toul, have further strained the country's medical sector.
The United Nations World Food Programme has warned of a deepening humanitarian emergency, estimating that approximately 1.24 million people across Lebanon now face acute food insecurity because of disrupted supply routes, damage to agricultural land and mass displacement.
Diplomatic efforts have so far failed to halt the Israeli attacks on Lebanon.
On 3 June, the United States announced a renewed ceasefire framework agreed with Israel and the Lebanese government. The proposal envisaged the creation of pilot security zones in southern Lebanon and the relocation of armed operatives north of the Litani River.
However, Hezbollah formally rejected the framework on Thursday, arguing that it amounted to unilateral concessions rather than a genuine ceasefire.
The group's leader, Naim Qassem, said any sustainable agreement must include a comprehensive Israeli withdrawal from Lebanese territory and an end to all military operations. Hezbollah has accused Israel of undermining the proposed truce by maintaining control over large areas of southern Lebanon, continuing air strikes and reserving what Israeli officials describe as freedom of action against perceived threats inside Lebanon.
The movement argues that a ceasefire cannot be considered valid while Israeli forces remain deployed on Lebanese territory and military operations continue across the country.
