Twelve people were killed by a series of Israeli strikes on cars in Lebanon yesterday, the health ministry said, as conflict between Hizbollah and Israel continued on the eve of a third round of US-mediated talks between Lebanon and Israel.
More than 10 weeks into the war that spiralled out of the Iran conflict, Hizbollah confirmed that the commander of its elite Radwan force was killed in an Israeli strike in Beirut’s southern suburbs last week.
Hizbollah and Israel have been trading blows despite a US-mediated ceasefire announced last month, with hostilities largely focused in southern Lebanon, where Israeli forces are occupying a self-declared security zone.
