Israeli airstrikes on the eastern Lebanese city of Nabi Sheet have killed at least 16 people and wounded 35 others, according to Lebanon's Health Ministry. The ministry warned that the death toll could rise further as rescue operations continue. The strikes represent the latest escalation in the ongoing conflict between Israel and Iranian-backed Hezbollah militants, which has increasingly spilled over Lebanon's borders since the Gaza war began in October 2023.
