Authorities say the death toll is likely to climb after Israeli strikes on Almat over the weekend.
At least 23 people, including seven children, were killed and six others injured in an Israeli strike on Almat in Lebanon's Mount Lebanon province, the country's health ministry said on Sunday, adding that the death toll was likely to climb.
Three people were also killed and two others wounded in an Israeli strike on Mashghara in the western part of Lebanon's Bekaa Valley late on Saturday, while one person was killed and four others injured in a strike on Sahmar, also in western Bekaa, that occurred the same night, the health ministry added.
The towns of Sohmor and Mashghara in West Bekaa in Lebanon were left in ruins on Sunday (10 November), following Israeli strikes on Saturday (9 November).
Among those affected is Ahmad Ali Hajj, a Sohmor resident who found his house, a product of a lifetime of work, reduced to rubble.
"This is my house, I worked so hard my whole life to build it," he said, adding that "I don’t have in it any missiles to attack the Jews (referring to Israelis)."
Civil defense workers were inspecting the strike site, amid billowing smoke and severely damaged buildings.
