Lebanese sources report that an Israeli strike in the Jezzine district of southern Lebanon killed the mayor of the village of Rihan. The report comes from a single Lebanese outlet and has not been confirmed by Israeli officials.
Lebanese media reported just before noon on Sunday that an Israeli airstrike in the Jezzine district of southern Lebanon killed the mayor of the village of Rihan. The Jezzine area lies roughly 12 kilometers northeast of the Israeli border, a zone that has seen repeated Israeli strikes in recent weeks. The Zioneer has previously covered Israeli operations in southern Lebanon, including strikes on villages such as Brashit, Qunin, Maroun al-Ras, and Arab Salim, as well as a separate wave of evacuation warnings and airstrikes on June 10 that killed at least eight people. Those reports, like this one, came from Lebanese or military sources and were not immediately confirmed by the IDF. The current report on the mayor's death originates from a single Lebanese channel and remains unverified.
