At least 31 people were killed and 40 injured in Israeli air attacks on southern and eastern Lebanon, Beirut's government said on Wednesday, in one of the heaviest days of bombing in weeks. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his country's army was stepping up operations in Lebanon.
Lebanese officials said a barrage of Israeli strikes on Tuesday killed 31 people and wounded 40 others. Security sources from the country said that more than 120 Israeli strikes had hit southern and eastern Lebanon on Tuesday.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the country's military was deepening operations in its northern neighbour.
In a statement on Tuesday, Netanyahu said the Israeli military "is operating with large forces in the field and capturing and controlling areas."
"We are fortifying the security strip to protect the northern communities," he said in a reference to a self-declared security zone occupied by Israeli troops several kilometres inside southern Lebanon.
The bombing further strained a ceasefire announced by U.S. President Donald Trump on 16 April that was meant to halt fighting between Israel and the Iran-backed Lebanese armed group Hezbollah, and came as Iran said the United States had violated a separate truce by striking southern Iran.
