Israeli attacks kill at least seven in Lebanon's Western Beqaa and Tyre At least seven people were killed in separate Israeli attacks in Lebanon's Western Beqaa and Tyre, according to reports carried by Lebanon's National News Agency. The agency, citing the Lebanese health ministry, said five people were killed in a raid on the town of Sohmor in Western Bekaa, including a child, a woman and two elderly people. In a separate incident, two Palestinian nationals were killed in the Rashidieh area of Tyre, a coastal city in southern Lebanon known as Sour in Arabic, according to the agency. The attacks come amid continuing violence in southern Lebanon despite ongoing diplomatic efforts to preserve the ceasefire and reduce tensions along the border.
