Southern Lebanon: Israeli strikes kill one, wounds rescuers

Israel has carried out fresh air strikes in southern Lebanon. Officials there said at least one person was killed and four others were wounded. The strikes came after the Israel Defense Forces issued new evacuation warnings on Sunday for residents in more than ten villages and towns, including the city of Nabatieh. Residents were ordered to leave their homes and move at least 1,000 metres away to open areas. The hostilities are continuing despite a ceasefire signed last month between Israel and Lebanon, which was intended to halt the fighting with Iran-backed Hezbollah. Israel has accused Hezbollah of repeated violations of the truce. France 24 International affairs editor Shirli Sitbon shares further insights.
