Lebanese sources report an artillery strike that hit the Shiite village of Nabatieh al-Fawqa (Upper Nabatieh) in southern Lebanon earlier today, Thursday, killing three people. The report was relayed by security analyst Yair Goldblatt (via arabworld301news). The broader Nabatieh area has been a repeated target of Israeli strikes in recent days and weeks, as The Zioneer has reported in a series of bulletins dating back to early June — including strikes on 10 towns in the Nabatieh district on June 14, and four separate lethal strikes near Nabatieh on June 16. The present report is the second today that names three fatalities in a security incident in Lebanon (following a separate N12-sourced report at 15:19). No details on the precise target, the type of munition, or the identities of the killed have been released. The source of the fire is widely attributed to the IDF in the local reports but has not been officially confirmed by the Israeli military.
