BEIRUT, May 19 (Xinhua) -- Two Hezbollah members were killed, and two others were wounded on Sunday in an Israeli airstrike on a house in Lebanon's southern village of Maroun al-Ras, Lebanese military sources told Xinhua.
The sources, who spoke anonymously, said an Israeli warplane fired four air-to-surface missiles at a two-story house in Maroun al-Ras, destroying the house and inflicting casualties.
Meanwhile, Hezbollah said its fighters attacked several Israeli sites, causing casualties.
Tensions along the Lebanon-Israel border escalated on Oct. 8, 2023, following a barrage of rockets launched by the Lebanese armed group Hezbollah toward Israel in solidarity with Hamas' attack on Israel the day before. Israel then retaliated by firing heavy artillery toward southeastern Lebanon. ■
