Overnight Israeli strikes on a building and a vehicle in the village of Kafr Rumman, near Nabatieh in southern Lebanon, have resulted in fluctuating casualty figures from Lebanese sources. The latest reports, published at 04:32 Jerusalem time Monday, put the toll at 11 killed and 5 wounded. This follows an earlier report from the Lebanese Civil Defense at the same hour citing 10 killed and 7 wounded, and a subsequent revision to 9 killed. The IDF has not commented on the strikes or the casualty figures.
The Nabatieh area has been a frequent target of Israeli airstrikes and drone strikes in recent months. As The Zioneer reported on June 24, a UAV strike killed two near Nabatieh al-Fawqa. On June 20, a strike killed a Lebanese Army soldier on a motorcycle near Nabatieh, and on June 13, a drone strike severely wounded another Lebanese soldier. The IDF has described its operations in southern Lebanon as targeting Hezbollah infrastructure and operatives.
The affiliation of the casualties in the latest strike remains unspecified. The figures cannot be independently verified, and it is unclear whether the dead include combatants or civilians.
