06/19/2026 June 19, 2026 Israel hits Lebanon overnight At least 16 people in Lebanon were killed in Israeli airstrikes overnight, Lebanese state-run news agency NNA reported on Friday morning. The report described the attacks on multiple towns as among the heaviest bombardment in recent weeks.
Meanwhile, the Israeli military said they were responding to ceasefire violations from the Iran-backed Hezbollah militia. Israel, the US, Germany and many other nations consider Hezbollah a
terrorist group. "During the night, the army struck and continues to strike Hezbollah terrorists and infrastructure in several areas in southern Lebanon," the IDF said in a
statement. Amid fragile peace negotiations between the US and Iran, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israeli forces will not withdraw from Lebanon until the Hezbollah threat is neutralized.
