TL;DR

Lebanon's civil defense reports eight people were killed in an Israeli airstrike before dawn on the village of Harouf in the Nabatieh district, according to a single source. The report does not specify whether the casualties were combatants or civilians, and the IDF has not commented.

01 · THE DISPATCH

Lebanon's civil defense reported early Friday morning that eight people were killed in an Israeli airstrike on the village of Harouf in the Nabatieh district of southern Lebanon. The strike took place before dawn, according to a single independent Arab desk report. The report does not provide the identities or affiliations of those killed, nor does it distinguish between Hezbollah operatives and civilians. The IDF has not issued a statement on the incident. This follows a sustained pattern of IDF strikes on Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon. The Zioneer has previously reported multiple strike waves in the region, though this report is based on a single source and remains unverified.
