An Israeli dawn strike on southern Lebanon on Sunday (May 31, 2026) killed eight people, including three women, Lebanon’s Health Ministry said, as Israel intensifies its attacks and ground operations in the country, saying they are against Hezbollah.

“The massacre committed by the Israeli enemy in a raid on the town of Deir Zahrani, Nabatieh district, at dawn on Sunday… resulted in eight martyrs, including three women, and 19 wounded, including five children and six women,” the Ministry said in a statement.
