01 · THE DISPATCH

Saturday morning at 09:40, a report from the 301 Arab World outlet described multiple plumes of smoke rising over the city of Nabatieh in southern Lebanon following Israeli Air Force strikes on the area.

The report follows a pattern of sustained Israeli aerial activity on Nabatieh that The Zioneer has tracked since early June. At 08:39 this morning, The Zioneer reported heavy fire hitting the city, without specifying the source or targets. Earlier this week, on Friday June 19, footage showed artillery striking Nabatieh, and on June 13 and 14, the IAF conducted strikes on multiple towns in the Nabatieh district, including Nabatieh city itself.

No details on the specific targets of Saturday's strikes, damage, or casualties have been reported yet. The report is single-sourced and remains unverified by additional channels.
